About me- Erik Änggård – SRE Team lead

I started at ATG for a bit more than year ago, the role was new at ATG then, so we have been shaping it along the way. In the beginning of 2020, we formed the SRE team, initially as a virtual team consisting of some of the most skilled people from different teams in the IT department. Now we are looking to extend the SRE team with some permanent members to get even more focus on this very important work. I really enjoy working with this team of bright people where we come together to analyze and solve problems or potential issues. We work in an agile way where everyone contributes and takes responsibility for their parts.
I have a background as a developer and really enjoy deep diving into technical issues. I have also worked extensively as a manager of development teams and like to coach teams to bring out their full potential. In my spare time I enjoy traveling, reading or just hanging out with family and friends.
