Summary
Oliver Knoll is a pragmatic software engineer with 15 years of experience building mission-critical financial systems and developer tools, combining a Master’s from ETH Zurich with deep hands-on expertise in C#, C++, Java, TypeScript and PL/SQL. He has driven rule-based frameworks and APIs for investor protection and regulatory compliance at Avaloq, shipping solutions used across regions and presenting them to communities and clients. At Rahn+Bodmer he continues to operate as an “extreme full‑stack” engineer, spanning Angular frontends to Avaloq/Oracle backends while practicing true agile collaboration. Early work in computer graphics (Pointshop 3D presented at SIGGRAPH) and low-level visualization informs a methodical approach to complex problems and performant implementations. He enjoys translating technical trade-offs into clear options for stakeholders and inventing alternative solution paths rather than defaulting to one-size-fits-all designs. Colleagues rely on him for readable, pragmatic systems that balance regulatory rigor, scalability and developer ergonomics.
