Summary
Michael Olesen is a Senior Software Engineer with nine years of hands-on experience building reliable, full-stack systems from infrastructure tooling to mobile wallets. He excels at reducing complexity and improving stability through automation, testing, monitoring, and infrastructure-as-code, having led Concordium’s mainnet launch and managed multi-cloud, Kubernetes-backed networks. At Uber he helped design and operate a Raft-based distributed data pipeline and focused on scalability, observability, and user-facing tooling, and he now contributes trading solutions at InCommodities. Comfortable across languages (Rust, Swift, TypeScript, Dart, Haskell, Elm) and layers, he combines pragmatic engineering with a knack for spotting subtle problems and opportunities others miss. He’s an avid learner who experiments with side projects to validate new techniques before bringing them into production.
