Symbolik.ai

Before I became a web developer, I worked an incredibly boring office job. I tried automating my tasks using Python, AutoIT scripting and other hacks, but discovered many limitations.

Seeing the LLM space emerge rapidly in 2023, I knew everything was about to change!

So — I started Symbolik.ai .

I'm building "Dolphin" - an AI co-worker that learns an office job by watching and talking to office workers while they do their tasks.

Basically: Dolphin empowers office workers to automate!

After a trip to Guatemala - where I met and lived with other young AI entrepreneurs - I was inspired to pivot away from the initial product "Mind Mapper", which was a visual programming interface with reasoning and logic powered by LLMs.

Dolphin uses some of those initial ideas for building mental models to generalize observations made while watching the office workers.

Today, millions of humans are employed in office cubicles, doing very easy and boring manual labor on computers. It's expensive for businesses, and oftens comes with high employee turnover rates. After working such a job myself, I became very passionate to find ways of automating it since it just feels very wasteful of human resources.

I worked directly together with two big Danish coorporations and their office workers to understand how it might be possible to finally solve this problem by utilizing AI.

Clevertrack

My career began at Mostly Code in early 2020, working full-time with my mentor Mads Østergaard on different web projects and a SaaS startup — an experience that shaped my foundation as a developer.

After Mostly Code closed in 2022, our biggest client Clevertrack hired me in a part-time role while I pursued my university studies.

Clevertrack is a Danish IoT startup that helps construction sites reduce emisions and costs by tracking their vehicles.

My main role at Clevertrack was building the website and app using React and Gatsby. We used SSG for everything. The app fetched data from Clevertrack's custom REST API just using client-side JavaScript.

Due to the proprietary nature, I can't share any code or login credentials. But I built the history and service modules, and contributed to most other parts of the app.

Many parts of the app suffered from poor UX and design decisions when I joined, so I was able to use my design experience to improve the readability of the UI greatly by applying simple contrast and composition principles. The app needs to display a ton of info and data, so making it easier to navigate and understand all that was an interesting challenge!

I designed and implemented a new frontpage for the Clevertrack landingpage. Originally the stock image had a big truck - however, that is not representative of the customers that Clevertrack has. So I made a 3D render of a car that many of their customers know and even use to replace the truck with. Then I added all the graphical elements etc. to tell a story of what Clevertrack does - track vehicles and and provide insights based on data.

Hubble was an internal automations project that I designed a logo for. Hubble was supposed to be a custom CRM to streamline customer onboarding and registering with the physical tracker devices.

While I was only working on their website and app, a major part of their business is their custom vehicle trackers. However, the real-life devices don't look very sexy, so they asked me if I could do some pretty illustrations based on the real-life apperance, but add my artistic interpretation.

The illustrations are now used to help customers understand the product that Clevertrack offers.

This was the result :-)

DTU (Uni)

After 5 months of full-time work at Mostly Code , I enrolled in University to study a BSc in Design & Innovation.

At DTU, 25% of your courses are free electives, so I picked a lot of computer science classes to improve my SWE skills.

I have almost finished my BSc degree, but are currently taking a break from uni. I already finished and passed my thesis project, which was about my startup.

At my time at DTU I learned a wide variety of skills, in- and outside of tech. Most courses from Design & Innovation are about project work, management and processes. However, I also got to study some cool math, algorithms & data structures, and even did a little bit of chip design on an FPGA board!

In 2022 I led the software team of a 3-week IoT project. We built a "sourdough hotel" machine that automatically nuture and measure a sourdough mixture, sending information to users phone. I was involved in all the software layers: embedded programming, devops, and server-side Node-RED.

I also spun up a quick blog site , to document our progress.

#Startup ⓘ

Since I was 16 I've always had some kind of side-project or even a business attempt going on in my life.
Many failed ventures = many valuable lessons.

My previous job was also in a startup, and I recently spent more than a year trying (and failing) to launch Symbolik.ai.

Right now I'm excited to get back into a job though!
#AI ⓘ

My initial interest in AI began in 2017 when I had almost just learned to code. I learned the basics of Neural Networks, but didn't go any further.

Shortly after the release of ChatGPT to the public in late 2022, I became interested again. However, discovering LangChain early into 2023 is what truly got me hooked on AI. The idea of using LLM's as a processing unit in an application was very mindblowing to me!

 C# ⓘ

I learned C# in 2016 when I got into gamedev with Unity.

In 2019 I had to learn .NET MVC (C#) for school, but disliked it so much that I started learning Svelte in my own time. I instantly fell in love, and still use and advocate for Svelte and SvelteKit to this day.

However, I recently picked up C# again for Symbolik.ai, to build the Desktop Client in WPF. This is where C# shines!

#React ⓘ

I learned React when I joined Mostly Code in 2020, and that's also what we used to build the app for Clevertrack.

I'm really excited about React 19, and seeing how it's catching up to the compiler paradigme that Svelte pioneered already more than 5 years ago :-) kek

#SSG ⓘ

I got hired by Mostly Code because of my interest in JAMStack , which was all the rage for soydevs back in 2020. We used Gatsby.js for Static Site Generation (SSG). Since it's a React framework, we were actually able to use it to build a full webapp for Clevertrack.

It's been quite the journey as a young person, seeing how all of this just continued evolving and challenging the status quo. I'm very satisfied seeing today's frontend landscape offering several frameworks with support for combining multiple rendering paradigms!

#IoT ⓘ

Arduino was actually my very first exposure to programming, back in 2015. Had a lot of fun!

Clevertrack is also a startup based entirely around IoT, allthough I wasn't involved in hardware development.

In 2022 I led the software team of a 3-week IoT project at Uni. Read about that in the details of my Uni experience.

#UX ⓘ

My peers in school often found my obsession with design details annoying — perfect spacing, contrast, attention flow, and accessibility. Getting out of school though, I found my UX skilled was highly valued.

At Clevertrack, the CEO said I completely transformed the app's UX, and clients had praised the overhaul - I took the original initiative and went over a few areas, and when he saw the results he asked me to overhaul the entire app.

#Design ⓘ

Even though I put "Senior Software Engineer" on my resume, I really think I'm more of a designer.

Design Thinking to me means - figuring out the constraints of some system, and trying to adjust everything until everything falls into place.

And this is really powerful and applicable in anything you'd wanna do. Brian Chesky founded AirBnB as a designer!

#Comp. Sci. ⓘ

Besides taking Algorithms & Datastructures 1 at uni, I had a really good time on the "Digital Electronics" course where I learned chip design. Getting down to the bare metal and composing with logic gates was a completely new way of thinking about 'programming' to me.

It was mind blowing to me in the same way functional programming was when I first learned about that!
