Pelle Ravn is a seasoned software leader and hands-on developer with 11 years of experience building backend systems and cross-platform mobile apps, now managing Digital Platforms Development at Ahlsell Danmark. He blends strategic leadership with day-to-day engineering—from .NET backends to Xamarin and native iOS—anchored by a business-oriented software degree and an iOS specialization. As a founder and long-time consultant he has repeatedly moved between product-focused teams and embedded R&D roles, delivering pragmatic solutions for mapping, telecom, and enterprise customers. Pelle is an active open-source contributor to the well-known MvvmCross framework, where his iOS fixes improved UI linking and image caching reliability. Based in Aalborg, he combines Nordic practicality with a developer’s curiosity, often stepping into mobile or backend trenches when projects need hands-on rescue. His background in both client apps and server architecture gives him a rare fluency in shipping cohesive cross-platform experiences.
