Emil Ingemar Karlsson — Agentic Engineer Stockholm

Engineer · technical founder · systems builder

I build products, data platforms, and autonomous systems.

My path runs from native mobile apps and enterprise infrastructure through analytics and data engineering to agentic systems. Today that work converges in Company OS — the low-cost operating layer behind The Unnamed Roads.

Technical journeyFrom Swift apps to autonomous systemsData & analytics have been the foundation from the start — first as product signals, then as business intelligence and data platforms, and now as context and feedback for autonomous systems.

One continuous foundation: using data to understand what is happening, analytics to decide what matters, and engineering to turn that understanding into reliable action.

    Data & Analytics

    Software, dashboards, and data from the start

    During my software development studies, I was already building dashboards and using data to explain what was happening. Analytics was never a later specialization; it became the foundation I carried into every role that followed.

    Data & Analytics

    TUVA: a data-informed mobile product

    I founded TUVA and built native Swift and Java apps with real-time reporting, maps, notifications, and product analytics. Reaching 10,000 users in three weeks made user behaviour and feedback part of everyday product decisions.

    TietoEVRY: infrastructure becomes a data problem

    In enterprise service operations, I began turning infrastructure and support data into repeatable pipelines, Power BI dashboards, and proactive operational insight. Reliability, ownership, and measurable outcomes became part of how I build.

    Data & Analytics

    BI across assignments — with trust built in

    As a consultant and BI developer at XLENT, I scoped and delivered Power BI dashboards across client assignments. Work with GDPR and security added governance, traceability, and responsible data use to the analytics foundation.

    Data & Analytics

    Analytics guides enterprise product decisions

    At Husqvarna, I used 40,000 daily sessions, 1,470 survey responses, and 30 customer visits to shape a B2B platform across 35 markets. Data connected product strategy to customer reality and operational outcomes.

    AI & Agentic

    Early ChatGPT adoption becomes a daily practice

    I began testing ChatGPT close to its public arrival. During 2023 it moved into my daily work for analysis, writing, problem-solving, and code — first through prompts, then through a deliberate library of reusable workflows.

    Databricks: dashboards become a governed platform

    At Husqvarna, I moved from reporting into end-to-end data engineering: reusable ingestion from enterprise systems, 100 Databricks jobs, 200+ notebooks, and 631 governed tables — followed by forecasting, NLP, and applied machine learning.

    AI & Agentic

    From copy–paste to building with AI

    The first coding loop was simple: ask GPT, copy, paste, test, and refine. It quickly evolved into building full sites and applications conversationally — an early version of what would later be called vibe coding.

    AI & Agentic

    Automation becomes a parallel AI track

    Alongside application development, I connected models to Zapier, n8n, APIs, and scheduled processes. Prompts became reusable flows that could collect data, transform it, trigger actions, and improve through feedback.

    AI & Agentic

    AI moves into the development environment

    Models became part of the actual engineering loop: reading the codebase, using context from the computer, implementing, testing, and shipping from the IDE. MCP then connected that loop to enterprise data, documentation, and tools.

    AI & Agentic

    Production agentic stacks

    I built the operating infrastructure around the models: orchestration, routing, memory, observability, scoped tool access, approvals, and failure handling. The stack now runs 10+ live projects and 33 n8n workflows.

    Convergence

    Data and AI converge in a Company OS

    I am developing a Company OS that connects goals, context, specialist agents, tools, memory, execution, and human oversight. MCP data pipelines give those agents controlled access to reliable data — turning a long analytics foundation into an operating system for autonomous work.

Current chapter · The Unnamed Roads

Everything I have built is converging into Company OS.

Product analytics taught me to measure behaviour. Enterprise operations taught me reliability and trust. Data platforms taught me how context moves through an organisation. AI now lets me connect those foundations into an operating layer that coordinates many capabilities across businesses and projects — highly automated, accountable, and extremely inexpensive to run.

This is becoming the technical base of The Unnamed Roads, my venture studio.

Selected work

Four systems, one analytical thread.

Data and analytics have followed every stage of my work: first as product signals, then as operational intelligence, then as governed enterprise platforms, and now as the context and feedback loops that make autonomous systems useful.

Operational analytics · 2018

From SLA Reporting to Proactive IT Operations

Analytics lead — data preparation, dashboard, and decision design

Turned ServiceNow history into SQL-based datasets and a Power BI decision interface for exploring incidents, service levels, recurring patterns, and opportunities for proactive improvement.

Evidence

  • Power BI decision interface
  • SQL analytical datasets
  • ServiceNow operations data

What this demonstrates: I use analytics to make complex operations understandable and actionable — a principle that still shapes the systems I build today.
