🎓
Top School
Markus Rekdal is an R&D engineer at Nordic Semiconductor with five years of hands-on experience in embedded systems, low-level programming and IoT development. He holds a master's background in computer engineering from NTNU with study time at the University of Tokyo, and brings practical C and firmware expertise from extending the nRF Connect SDK—adding real-sensor support for Thingy:91 and nRF9160 DK and integrating LwM2M Carrier Library in samples. Comfortable across hardware and software boundaries, he has also built apps with C# and Angular and taught introductory programming and Arduino labs at NTNU. Colleagues know him for careful documentation, pragmatic bug fixes, and cleaning up legacy hotfixes—skills that make him effective at turning research prototypes into maintainable products.
