Magnus Blåudd is a Principal Software Developer based in Uppsala, Sweden, with 19 years of deep experience building and leading engineering efforts around distributed databases and high‑availability systems. He spent nearly two decades evolving MySQL NDB Cluster—designing handler interfaces, distributed metadata, parallel replication appliers, and test frameworks—while mentoring teams to improve reliability and portability across platforms. Now at Scaleout and running a side venture improving mountain bike orienteering, he combines large-scale systems design with hands-on implementation and an operator’s practical sensibility. His background includes embedded and telecom-grade real‑time work, which helps him design for predictable latency and robust failover in complex environments. Colleagues praise him simply as “the one who makes things work,” reflecting a talent for turning fraught distributed problems into maintainable, performant solutions.
