Senior🎓
Top SchoolRasmus Jacobsen is a Senior Software Engineer with 11 years of professional experience, combining a Master’s in Computer Science (Game Programming) from Aalborg University with deep practical expertise in embedded systems and Rust. Since 2016 he has driven development at Nordcad Systems while contributing low-level device driver fixes and HAL work to the well-regarded embassy-rs embedded framework, demonstrating strong hardware-software integration skills. His background includes game development, teaching OOP, and leading cross-disciplinary projects, reflecting both technical depth and an aptitude for collaboration and project management. He’s comfortable moving between high-level system design and DMA/GPIO/USART-level debugging, and he brings a curiosity for new tools and techniques that keeps his toolkit current. An organizer and former LARP game master, he also brings real-world leadership and stakeholder coordination experience that often surfaces in smoother team processes.
