Emil Jernkrook and Daniel Federstedt strengthen Aranya West

After several years as consultants in their own company, Emil Jernkrook and Daniel Federstedt have chosen to board Aranya West. They were attracted by the opportunity to be part of a company where networking is the main focus, and by the chance to immerse themselves in their special interest with like-minded people. They also highlight the benefit of developing in a culture where competence and humility go hand in hand.

Both Emil and Daniel are senior network engineers who have worked with design, installation, automation and programming. Daniel takes a role in team Solutions where he helps customers with everything from improvements to existing networks, design of new solutions and with long-term plans for how the customer’s environment will develop.

– It can be anything from optimizing the performance of a wifi in a warehouse, to developing a complete solution with new equipment where you plan the different parts of the project together with suppliers, and then measure, design and deliver, says Daniel.

Before joining Aranya, Emil worked with networks and automation. At Aranya, the focus is instead on DevOps and the further development of the Aranya Connectivity Platform (ACP). The platform is developed in-house and provides great opportunities to adapt the solution to customer needs and implement new features.

– I’m looking forward to working in a focused way in a limited area and developing a platform where anything is possible,” says Emil.

Culture as a driver of learning

Both Emil and Daniel describe networking people as a bit nerdy – but in a positive way. Because there are clear standards for how things should work, the area becomes competence-driven and attracts people who want to understand, develop and constantly improve. When they have previously met employees from Aranya in joint customer projects and at events, they have experienced that the company is characterized by competence, humility and community.

– “When I have met Aranya before, I have experienced that everyone is a team player and that there is always a desire to do things really well,” says Emil.

Both emphasize that it is an advantage that networking is Aranya’s core business. They emphasize that the short paths between the customer and Aranya create close cooperation, which leads to secure projects and better results.

– “I’m looking forward to being in a context with other experts. On the one hand, other technicians, and on the other hand, meeting customers together with salespeople who know how to network,” says Daniel.
