Lennart Augustsson is currently employed by Credit Suisse. The Credit Suisse Group () is a Financial services company headquartered in Zurich, Switzerland. He was previously a lecturer at the Computing Science Department at Chalmers University of Technology. Computer science (or computing science) is the study and the Science of the theoretical foundations of Information and Computation and their Chalmers University of Technology or Chalmers tekniska Högskola ( CTH) often Chalmers, is a University in Gothenburg, He has also worked for Carlstedt Research and Technology and Sandburst. His research field is functional programming and implementations of functional languages. In Computer science, functional programming is a Programming paradigm that treats Computation as the evaluation of mathematical functions and

Lennart is the author of:

• The Cayenne programming language. Cayenne is a Functional programming language with Dependent types The basic types are functions products and sums
• The HBC Haskell compiler. Haskell is a standardized Purely functional Programming language with non-strict semantics, named after the Logician Haskell Curry
• Several hardware device drivers for NetBSD. In computing a device driver or software driver is a Computer program allowing higher-level computer programs to interact with a Hardware device NetBSD is a freely redistributable Open source version of the Unix -derivative Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD Computer Operating
• The front end of the pH compiler (parallel Haskell) from MIT.
• The initial version of the Bluespec compiler. Bluespec Inc is a semiconductor tool design company co-founded by prof

He was intimately involved in early LPMud development, both in the LPMUD driver and the CD mudlib. LPMud (sometimes shortened to simply " LP " is a MUD variant developed in 1989 by '''L'''ars '''P'''ensjö (hence the LP in LPMud that CD gamedriver and CD mudlib (also known as CDlib) are popular LPMud Gamedriver and Mudlib.

Lennart has written three winning entries in the International Obfuscated C Code Contest:

• 1986 Best complex task done in a complex way (1986/august.c)
• 1996 Best of Show (1996/august.c)
