Summary
Lars Nøstdal is a senior software developer with 17 years of experience building resilient, distributed systems using Clojure, PostgreSQL and Linux. He has led development and deployment of globally distributed, networked kiosk platforms for multiplayer gaming, owning everything from low-level hardware integration to VPN-based remote management and observability. Lars combines a functional-programming mentality with deep systems knowledge—designing continuous-time algorithmic trading engines and real-time backtesting infrastructure as a freelancer. Comfortable across full-stack concerns, he has shipped production services that handle unreliable networks, internationalization, payments and complex state synchronization. Based in Varna, he pairs a pragmatic engineering craft with an unconventional lifestyle as a traveling freelancer, farmer and sailor, which informs his focus on robust, autonomous systems.
