Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolKristian Lyngstøl is a Platform Engineer with nearly two decades of hands-on experience across GNU/Linux, networking, and systems engineering, currently helping run the SRE platform at Amedia. He has a rare blend of deep technical skill—C, build systems, Kubernetes, monitoring and large-scale network management—and organizational insight honed by both professional roles at companies like Telenor and Redpill Linpro and long-term volunteer leadership. At Telenor he focused on resilient, highly integrated monitoring for national-scale IP networks, while at Varnish and earlier projects he built impactful operational tooling used in production. For seven years he led teams of 14–25 people deploying one of the world’s largest temporary LANs, giving him concrete experience in field operations, planning and budget negotiation. Pragmatic and detail-oriented, he moves between low-level troubleshooting and strategic platform design, often turning bespoke tools into repeatable products. Based in Oslo, he now concentrates on platform reliability and automation, using his volunteer leadership background to amplify team outcomes.
