Manager at Netlight

Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolMartin Nyfløtt is a manager and seasoned software engineer with 13 years of experience helping organizations design, operate, and scale backend systems—whether monoliths or distributed cloud microservices. Based in Oslo and currently at Netlight, he blends hands-on engineering with architecture, sustainability, and team coaching to improve both delivery outcomes and people’s professional growth. His background includes contributions to CERN and improving test automation for the scientific ROOT project, where he strengthened cross-platform test reliability and refactored suites to Google Test. Colleagues know him as a pragmatic problem-solver who treats complex systems as “dragons” to be tamed, trained, and grown rather than just code to be written. He brings a master’s in applied computer science from NTNU and a habit of experimenting with new tech outside of work—often as a self-described “Moira main.”
