Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolAnders Storrø is an R&D software engineer based in Trondheim with seven years’ experience building Bluetooth mesh and embedded systems, most recently contributing to Nordic Semiconductor and now at Autronica Fire and Security. He combines hands-on telecom field experience—installing fire alarm systems, fiber and network infrastructure—with a Master’s in Electronic System Design from NTNU, giving him uncommon practical insight into both hardware and firmware. Anders has contributed notable features and tests to high-profile open-source projects like the nRF Connect SDK and the Zephyr RTOS, including mesh models, BLOB client support, and proxy advertisement improvements. Comfortable across IoT stacks, he’s particularly skilled at translating protocol specs into robust, tested implementations for constrained devices. Outside work he decompresses with family time, travel in central European cities, and video games, a habit that keeps his problem-solving instincts sharp.
