Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolTroels Bentsen is a pragmatic technology leader and board member with 21 years of hands-on experience building cloud-native, embedded and IoT systems across startups and large enterprises. As a former CTO who scaled an engineering org to 35 and turned a telematics prototype into a multi-regional production platform handling terabytes of vehicle data, he blends deep technical fluency (Go, Rust, TypeScript, Kubernetes, GCP/AWS/Azure) with vendor, compliance and security savvy. He still codes and contributes to open-source—evidenced by back-end and LDAP/permissions work on the widely used DokuWiki project—so technical excellence informs his hiring and architecture decisions. Troels repeatedly reduces overhead and non-FTE costs while creating healthy, low-turnover cultures, and now advises companies via his consultancy NVersion and board roles. His background spans fintech and banking projects (Nordea, Danske Bank) to logistics and shipping, giving him an uncommon fluency in regulated, data-rich domains.
