Senior🎓
Top SchoolChristian Horsdal is an independent consultant and software architect with 15+ years of experience designing and implementing pragmatic .NET solutions that balance business, functional and non-functional requirements. As owner of Horsdal Consult and a former CTO, he blends hands-on development, architecture and training to help teams ship simple, lean systems fast, often combining commercial, open-source and bespoke components. He speaks and trains on microservices, event sourcing, TDD and software craftsmanship, and has authored "Instant Nancy Web Development" and "Microservices in .NET Core." His background spans embedded C/C++ at Bang & Olufsen to enterprise architecture roles, giving him uncommon depth across low-level systems and cloud-native .NET.

Based in Aarhus, Denmark, he frequently turns complex domain constraints into maintainable, testable architectures.
