Even Holthe is a Platform Engineering practice lead with 13 years' experience building cloud-native infrastructure and developer platforms from Oslo, Norway. He combines hands-on expertise in Kubernetes, Golang and Java with leadership roles at Bekk where he drives platform practices and "straight to production" delivery. A pragmatic engineer who still contributes to open source, Even has improved widely used projects like Dependabot and the Azure Terraform provider and added SSH and OIDC enhancements to Headscale. His background spans PCI-compliant payment systems, scheduler and CA tooling, and he’s comfortable moving between back-end code, DevOps automation and test engineering. Colleagues describe him as an "infra and K8s junkie" who prefers to keep his focus—he's not seeking new opportunities.
