Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolTorgeir Thoresen is a seasoned software manager based in Trondheim with 15 years of experience leading consulting teams at Bekk and a technical background in front-end web development. He progressed from consultant to manager at the same firm, combining hands-on JavaScript, HTML/CSS expertise with delivery and people leadership since 2009. His early work and internships at Confirmit and Student Media show deep practical experience building interactive web platforms and survey/reporting tools. An active contributor to front-end open-source (notably examples and UI refinements for the React-focused omniscientjs library), he cares about pragmatic UX details as much as architecture.

Colleagues describe him as a steady engineering leader who bridges developer craftsmanship and client-facing delivery.
