Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSimen Graaten is a founder and full‑stack engineer with 15 years’ experience modernizing high‑traffic web platforms, most recently rebuilding a PHP/React/TypeScript stack and authoring the API and admin tooling for a price‑comparison site. He blends hands‑on backend work (Laravel, Solr, ffmpeg integrations) with frontend migrations to React/TypeScript, and is comfortable operating and tuning the underlying servers and services (Apache, MySQL, Varnish, Icecast). His background includes building media systems—web radio, flash/video backends and a bittorrent tracker—which gives him practical expertise in streaming and media tooling that many web engineers lack. Based in Oslo, he favors pragmatic, tool‑centric solutions (sed/awk/bash, git, rsync) and has a strong track record of maintaining multiple medium‑traffic sites concurrently.
