Summary
Øystein Amundsen is a senior consultant and full-stack engineer with over 11 years of professional experience building scalable, secure web applications for medium to large enterprises such as NSB, Gassco and Norsk Hydro. A certified Java J2EE architect who in recent years has specialized in rich front-end MV* applications, he combines deep server-side expertise (Oracle, WebLogic, Apache, mySQL) with modern front-end toolkits like AngularJS, jQuery and responsive SCSS. He prioritizes usability, accessibility and real-world performance—believing a product that fails across resolutions is broken—and brings a practiced understanding of web user psychology to design decisions. Known as a fast learner and strong researcher, Øystein finds productive, clean solutions quickly and focuses on security, stability and cost-efficiency. Outside code he applies visual skills from fine arts and DSLR photography to craft interfaces that communicate clearly. Based in Haugesund, Norway, he balances a committed family life with a deliberate commute radius, preferring local, high-impact engagements.
