Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolOliver Larsen is a software engineer based in Copenhagen with 11 years of hands-on experience spanning iOS development in Swift/Objective-C and low-level C++ contributions to open-source projects. He began building websites at 14 and progressed through scripting with Lua to game-related tooling, then moved back to “bare metal” C++ work—demonstrating both breadth and depth across stacks. At Trifork he focuses on mobile engineering while also contributing as a full-stack developer to the Pencil2D animation project, where he’s fixed keyframe controls, refactored tools, and added UI and localization features. His background in Medialogy gives him a creative-technical edge, reflected in being a hobby artist and in improving tools used by creators. Colleagues describe him as highly dedicated and curious, a developer who prefers getting into implementation details as well as user-facing polish.
