Kiko Fernandez-Reyes

My name is Kiko Fernandez-Reyes, and I work as a software engineer in the Erlang/OTP team, building and improving the Erlang programming language at Ericsson. Before that, I was a backend software engineer at Klarna.

Before Klarna, (2014-2020) I did my Ph.D. at Uppsala University where I developed concurrent and parallel programming languages for our research compiler. Among them, I developed typed-based optimisations for future-based programming languages and a capability-based dynamic language design that maintains data-race freedom and satisfies the gradual guarantee.

I enjoy living a calm life in a small town in Sweden, playing padel whenever I can. I always bring a padel racket with me, so I am game!
