ABOUT US
ABOUT US
Founded in 2015 by Babak Rostamzadeh and David Niklasson, technical experts and seasoned managers with a combined 60 years of experience in the automotive industry. Our company is built on deep technical knowledge and real-world insight. From our headquarters in Gothenburg, we provide expertise, strategic advisement, and leadership in four key areas: Safety & Security, Systems Engineering, Software Development and Electromobility.
Driven by a vision of a future where every journey is safe, secure, and reliable, we are committed to being a trusted partner in the transformation of mobility.
Our culture & our values
The company succeeds when our consultants succeed. At Carabiner, we believe that the best work happens when people feel at home. That’s why we have created a culture with a strong sense of family and belonging, where everyone is seen, supported, and valued. Trust, respect, and genuine care are at the core of how we work and who we are.
Our values are grounded in this philosophy. At the heart of our company is a clear purpose: to drive progress through engineering excellence and ethical responsibility.
Our work is guided by four core values that shape how we operate, collaborate with clients, and grow as a team.
Diversity
Strength Through Differences
We believe a team of diverse experts is stronger and more effective at solving complex, non-routine challenges. Competence should be evaluated based on performance and values, not on origin, cultural background, religion, sexual orientation, gender, or age.
At Carabiner, we all have different backgrounds, but we share the same core values. Our strength isn’t just that we are different— it’s how we come together and use those differences to improve our work. By combining our diverse perspectives, we produce more creative solutions for complex problems.
Simply put: the more varied our perspectives, the more we can learn from each other—and the stronger we are as a team.
Social responsibility
People. Planet. Responsibility.
We make sure the safety and well-being of others is at the heart of what we do. We are committed to acting ethically and contributing to the economic and social development of our local communities and society at large.
All the products and services we develop should be socially sustainable. We recognize the privilege of how far we’ve come, and we feel a strong obligation to give back. We support those who lack the networks and resources that have benefited us throughout our journey.
Professionalism
Expertise With Integrity
At Carabiner, our foundation is deep expertise. We commit to mastering our craft, building our skills, and staying current with new technology.
We deliver results, without excuses.
Our goal is not to reinvent the wheel. Whenever we can, we connect proven solutions to meet our customers’ needs for quality, cost, and timing.
We value honesty and integrity above all. We own our mistakes and learn from others, but we are not afraid to step outside our comfort zone.
We take responsibility for what we say and do. In every interaction, we treat people with respect and empathy. Our decisions are grounded in facts, and we communicate clearly.
We remain professional in every situation.
Networking
Connections For Solutions
We do not claim to have all the answers, but we know how to find and combine the right ones to solve complex challenges. We work to build a strong network of trusted individual experts and partner organizations whose skills complement and strengthen our own.
Our primary commitment is to solve our clients’ problems. If the best solution lies beyond our existing network, we will find it.
As part of our social responsibility, we actively connect with universities and non-commercial organizations. This expanded network also helps us discover talented future members for our Carabiner team.
