Top SchoolMichael Nissen is a Senior Software Engineer based in Spain with a decade of experience building scalable, product-focused systems that reduce the visibility of technology in everyday life.

As an early product hire and technical lead, he has architected CI/CD and Kubernetes pipelines, managed small agile teams, and shipped full-stack platforms from prototype to production. His background in interaction design and embedded systems informs a human-centered approach to engineering, blending physical prototyping sensibilities with distributed systems design. Notably, he has repeatedly taken ownership of complex integrations—designing task dispatchers and message brokers for high-volume data processing—while maintaining a focus on elegant user experiences.
