Profile
I am a senior software developer based in Norway with more than 25 years of experience in technology and software development. Professionally, I have spent most of my career building and maintaining complex Workforce Management systems, with a strong focus on backend development, databases, enterprise systems and long-lived software. Outside work, I build tools, experiments and open-source projects around Python, Django, Wagtail, FastAPI, Linux, automation and AI-assisted development.Jeg er en senior systemutvikler fra Norge med mer enn 25 års erfaring fra teknologi og programvareutvikling. Profesjonelt har jeg brukt mesteparten av karrieren på å bygge og vedlikeholde komplekse Workforce Management-systemer, med sterkt fokus på backend-utvikling, databaser, enterprise-systemer og langlivede løsninger. Utenfor jobb bygger jeg verktøy, eksperimenter og open-source-prosjekter rundt Python, Django, Wagtail, FastAPI, Linux, automatisering og AI-støttet utvikling.

I am Thomas Augestad Weholt, a senior software developer from Norway. I started programming in the 1990s and have worked professionally in technology since 1999, and as a developer since 2000. My professional background is rooted in long-lived enterprise software, especially Workforce Management systems. I have worked for many years with backend development, databases, business-critical on-premise systems, C#, Microsoft SQL Server and complex product development. Privately, my technical center of gravity has always been Python, Linux and free software. This site is both a professional portfolio and a personal lab. It collects my development work, open-source projects, writing, photography and ideas about software, automation, AI-assisted development and practical computing.Jeg er Thomas Augestad Weholt, senior systemutvikler fra Norge.
