Baldur portrait
👋

Hello, I'm Baldur Logi - a Software Engineer. I am currently open for a full-time frontend or full-stack developer job.

About me

Education Foundation

Dual B.Sc. degrees in Engineering Management and Computer Science from Reykjavík University, providing a strong foundation in both technical and business aspects of software development.

Professional Journey

I moved to Copenhagen to expand my horizons, get to know new people, and seek more opportunities to challenge myself professionally.

I then joined Forsia Forsikring as a DevOps Developer, optimizing deployments and driving cloud migration initiatives.

I worked at Predicti as a Software Engineer, owning end-to-end data pipelines and cloud infrastructure for predictive insights in Nordic finance.

Entrepreneurship

As a self-starter, I founded Begyn, an AI-powered life system that helps users turn goals into daily progress. I built the entire product solo from concept to production, now serving paying users.

What Excites Me About Tech

The thrill of problem-solving and creating impactful solutions drives my passion for technology.

My expertise spans data engineering, DevOps, and cloud infrastructure with hands-on experience in modern tools and frameworks.

Beyond the Code

When I'm not coding, I enjoy staying active, exploring fashion, cooking and baking, discovering new music, and spending quality time with friends and family.

My experience

Software Engineer @ Predicti

Copenhagen, Denmark

Built and owned production ETL data pipelines end-to-end as the sole data engineer on a 4-person team, transforming raw financial data into predictive insights for Nordic financial institutions. Designed ingestion pipelines handling diverse sources — ZIP archives, SFTP servers, JSON, CSV, TXT, and REST APIs — processing datasets up to 100 GB (100M+ records) and streaming events through Kafka in dev and production. Led full end-to-end implementation: GitOps configuration, Terraform infrastructure, AWS IAM policies and Secrets Manager, and ArgoCD deployment — owning every layer from infrastructure to running pipeline. Solved performance challenges including memory optimization, batching, S3 backup, and safe restarts to process large-scale financial data without overflow or pipeline stalls.

Oct 2025 - 2026

Founder & Engineer @ Begyn

Remote

Sole engineer and founder of Begyn (begyn.app) — an AI-powered life system that turns big goals into daily progress through personalized coaching and smart next-action guidance. Built the full product stack solo: React + TypeScript + Vite, Supabase (PostgreSQL + Edge Functions), Vercel, Stripe billing, and PostHog analytics — from zero to production with real paying users. Designed and implemented an AI goal generation system using the Claude API via Supabase Edge Functions (Deno), including a clarifying question flow, dynamic step-count generation, and per-user context personalisation. Implemented a full subscription and billing system with Stripe Checkout, Customer Portal, and webhook handlers updating user tier in real time — including graceful free tier limit surfacing. Instrumented full-funnel analytics with PostHog across signup, onboarding, goal creation, step completion, and upgrade events — enabling data-driven iteration and identifying drop-off points in the activation flow from day one.

Freelance Web Developer

Copenhagen, Denmark

I started freelancing as a Web Developer driven by a passion for building up-to-date digital experiences that help businesses thrive online. Specializing in React.js, TypeScript, JavaScript, and Tailwind CSS, I focus on modernizing and optimizing websites for better performance and user engagement. My recent work involved redesigning an existing site to a reactive site with a mobile-first approach, improving performance, accessibility, and user engagement. I streamline front-end development by building scalable UI components and integrating third-party APIs, ensuring seamless functionality. By collaborating closely with clients, I translate business needs into interactive, high-performance web applications. Through clean, maintainable code and best practices in SEO and responsiveness, I help businesses enhance their online presence and user experience.
