Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolErlend Eriksen is a founding computer vision engineer and cybernetics specialist with 11 years building embedded Linux systems for autonomous navigation and video pipelines. He brings deep hands-on expertise in C/C++, Yocto, camera calibration, and interfacing with hardware like GPUs, IMUs, encoders and cryptography engines to squeeze performance from constrained platforms. Across startups and larger teams — from Blueye Robotics to Teledyne FLIR and AUV projects at Eelume — he has owned video backends and sensor fusion work while simplifying complexity through pragmatic abstractions. Comfortable digging into firmware, datasheets and OS internals, he routinely uncovers hardware features and subtle bugs that unlock product capabilities. Used to coordinating with multiple external partners under tight deadlines, he balances low-level engineering rigor with deliverable-focused iteration. Based in Oslo with a master’s in Cybernetics from NTNU, he blends research-grade problem solving with startup velocity.
