Stephan Eriksen is a Senior Software Engineer based in Oslo with 12 years of experience building full-stack systems and leading technical efforts in early-stage startups. He holds an M.Sc. in Computer Science and has co-founded multiple ventures, combining hands-on development with architecture, database and web performance optimizations, and distributed media processing including live streaming. In leadership roles at companies like PortalOne and Kudos&Co he has acted as tech lead, driving cross-stack delivery from infrastructure to front-end. He contributes to open-source testing tools—improving Newman’s test-reporting behavior—demonstrating attention to developer experience and reliability. Outside work he cultivates creative communities (co-founding the game-focused Work-Work coworking space) and brings that same maker mentality to product teams. He’s equally likely to debug a streaming pipeline as he is to discuss the best coffee or local bike routes.
