Adam Åström

AI Engineer — Backend & Distributed Systems

Stockholm, Sweden

I build AI systems end to end: the backend, the infrastructure they run on, and the product thinking that makes them useful. Right now I am a software developer at Bloomy Ideas and an AI engineer consultant at Now Interact. I also founded IntelliCite, a platform that measures how businesses show up in AI-generated answers. MSc in Software Engineering of Distributed Systems from KTH.

Projects

IntelliCite — Answer Engine Optimization platform

Dec 2025 – Present

Founder and sole builder · intellicite.io

More and more people search with tools like ChatGPT, but many companies are never mentioned in the answers. IntelliCite analyses how AI describes a business, finds the gaps and recommends what to fix.

I designed and built the full pipeline: prompt testing modelled on real search behaviour, website and content evaluation, AI perception and citation analysis, recommendation generation, and monitoring across large prompt sets. It is also the subject of my master’s thesis at KTH.

Independent consultant, through Bloomy Ideas

Contributed to a client platform for six months, delivering technical solutions with the Bloomy Ideas team and helping drive product improvements.

Data collection and automation pipelines

Personal

Pipelines that collected live deal data from Foodora, Wolt and Uber Eats and served it as structured APIs and JSON feeds. Most of the work was session handling and keeping them reliable enough to run continuously.

Distributed systems and high-performance computing

KTH & personal

Work on replication, fault tolerance and performance under load, with MPI, OpenMP and GPU offloading, plus a fair amount of backend Java covering concurrency and service design.

Web applications

Personal

React and Tailwind apps, including a deal aggregation site and an AI-driven workout generator.
