Gudbrand Schistad is a technology leader and CTO based in Oslo with eight years of hands-on software engineering and team leadership experience. He has progressed from developer and test engineer roles to leading refactors and the creation of large React component libraries and backend endpoints, most recently rising through technical lead to CTO at Esgian. Passionate about quality and test-driven practices, he combines a design-minded Human-Computer Interaction background with practical product experience running an education company and improving engineering workflows. Gudbrand is equally comfortable shipping code and coaching teams, and he brings an uncommon emphasis on software as an extension of its creators—shaping both maintainable systems and the people who build them.
