Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolZhiyu Luo is a pragmatic technology leader and CTO based in Oslo with 11 years of engineering leadership and a deep hands-on history building browsers and large-scale systems. He has progressed through technical and management roles at Opera and Kahoot!, growing teams from small startups to organizations of 100+ engineers while still contributing code when needed. His strengths include end-to-end product delivery, system architecture, performance optimization (notably rendering/memory improvements in mobile browsers), and assembling teams to match technical demands. Comfortable across stacks and platforms, he treats technologies as tools rather than constraints and excels at solving both algorithmic and large-system challenges. A detail many miss: he repeatedly rewrote core rendering modules and led projects that cut memory use significantly while improving frame rates, demonstrating rare low-level systems skill combined with executive leadership.
