Summary
Halvor Henriksen is a software engineer based in Oslo with 11 years of hands-on experience and a Master's in Computer Science from NTNU, including an exchange at EPFL where he deepened his expertise in functional languages and compiler design. He has practical full-stack experience from internships and roles at Genus and Huawei, working with C++, C#, TypeScript, React, Kubernetes, and low-level Linux performance evaluation. As a teaching assistant for multiple algorithm and systems courses, he pairs rigorous theoretical grounding with applied engineering. His master's work on compiler intermediate representations and affinity for functional programming inform a pragmatic approach to building robust, efficient systems. Comfortable across backend, frontend, and infrastructure, he brings a rare combination of compiler-level thinking to everyday software problems. He also has a background in game programming and tutoring, which sharpens his communication and mentoring skills.
