Roy Norangshol is a software engineering technical leader based in Trondheim with 15 years of experience building and operating high-throughput distributed systems and resilient network services. Currently at Cisco and running his own systems-administration consultancy since 2010, he blends hands-on ops (DNS, backups, VPNs, firewalls) with architecture work and cloud-native transformations. His background includes moving large Java monoliths to microservices and running event pipelines at ZEDGE handling >500M events/day, demonstrating an emphasis on performance and reliability. Roy pairs formal study in informatics and deep learning with practical experience across academia, media, and large public-sector platforms, bringing both research-friendly rigor and pragmatic tooling. Known as a “happy social hacker,” he combines curiosity from a lifelong attraction to computers with an ability to translate complex infrastructure needs into maintainable production systems.
