Summary
Daniel Svendsen is an embedded software developer with eight years of cross-disciplinary experience building robotics, IoT, and real-time systems from prototype to product. He holds an M.Sc. in Cybernetics and Robotics from NTNU with an exchange at TUM, and has combined low-level C/C++ and Zephyr RTOS expertise with hardware design skills acquired across startups and product teams. As CTO and co-founder of WasteTech startup Effisense and now an embedded developer at EmLogic, he blends hands-on firmware work with a strong product and entrepreneurial mindset. His background includes motor control, RF communication, sensor fusion, SLAM-based navigation, and AR-enabled inspection tools, demonstrating fluency across electronics and software stacks. Notably, he has repeatedly shipped hardware-integrated systems for commercial products and competitions—from a Kickstarter-launched camera rig to a Formula Student race car sensor system—showing a knack for turning research-grade solutions into reliable fielded products. Based in Oslo, he thrives at the intersection of embedded firmware, electronics, and product-driven engineering.
