Summary
Øyvind Hovdsveen is a software group lead with a decade of experience building embedded and cloud-connected systems, from firmware on ARM Cortex-M devices to IoT backends and APIs. He excels at bridging hardware, software and agile delivery—having led platform development, refactored on-premise systems for real-time aquaculture feeding, and overseen end-to-end smart-home products including firmware, gateways and cloud services. As a hands-on leader and former CTO, he combines product-minded engineering with process improvements in DevOps and Agile across distributed teams. His background in engineering cybernetics and a patent for automated power regulation underline a practical blend of control theory and embedded systems expertise. Based in rural Trøndelag, he’s equally comfortable in low-level protocol work and shaping team practices for reliable customer-facing products.
