I'm Niko, a Danish product and strategy operator based in London. Until April 2026, I was Product Lead at Encord, an AI infrastructure company helping teams curate, annotate, and evaluate data. I joined as Encord's first product manager and stayed as the company grew from 10 to 180 people, through its Series C.

I'm currently taking a deliberate break to think about what to build next, with a growing interest in founding a startup. I'm especially drawn to the intersection of AI, climate, and the systems shaping our future.

Outside work, I write and think about geopolitics, history, climate, and technology.
