Senior🎓
Top SchoolSimen Sørensen is a technical support engineer with a decade of hands-on experience bridging embedded systems, radar sensing, and customer-facing software tools. With a strong electrical engineering background (MSc work at UiO and Svalbard) he has shipped embedded prototypes for satellite missions, contributed to NASA miniaturization projects, and led application work for Novelda’s X7 radar SDK and dev kits. Comfortable in C/C++, Python, iOS and occasional Unity/C#, he combines low-level firmware development with tool and API design that improves end-user adoption. He pairs field experience in networking and satellite communications from military service with a hobbyist’s fluency in Arduino and ferrofluid experiments, reflecting both practical rigor and playful curiosity. Based in Oslo, he is motivated by space technology and aims to translate research-grade instrumentation into deployable systems that customers can actually use.
