Senior🎓
Top SchoolLars Pesch is a Senior Cloud Architect based in Bergen, Norway, with nearly two decades of software development experience and nine years focused on cloud architecture and delivery. He has led and contributed to cloud transformations across finance, automotive, energy and enterprise IT—designing Azure landing zones, IaC (Terraform) modules, and production-ready platforms for clients like DNB, Equinor, Bayer and CARIAD. Comfortable both hands-on (backend APIs, pipelines, infrastructure) and in lead-architect roles, he frequently works as an embedded consultant guiding internal teams through regulatory and operational constraints. His background in numerical simulation and applied mathematics (PhD-level research) gives him an analytical edge when architecting scalable, testable systems and evaluating complex trade-offs. Colleagues value him for translating deep technical detail into pragmatic roadmaps and for lifting team capabilities through on-site mentoring and documentation. He combines academic rigor with practical, multi-industry cloud delivery experience, often taking ownership of the toughest integration and migration challenges.
