Product Engineer (Frontend)

Hi, I’m Nils Jacobsen — crafting interfaces with a designer's eye and an engineer's precision.

With 5+ years in startups, R&D, and agency work, I specialize in building thoughtful user interfaces, design systems, and components that are both technically robust and user-focused.
