Michael Ishoel Olsen
Founding engineer
Has been writing code since he was eight.
Michael grew up on a sheep farm and wrote his first line of code at eight. He never really stopped. He has also ridden a sheep, which he insists is harder than it looks.
He studied at NTNU and spent almost a decade building software for other people. First as a developer at Sportradar, then seven years as a consultant at Knowit, most of it as a Senior Consultant shipping for large Norwegian companies.
At Native he is a founding engineer, finally building his own thing. He runs on strong coffee and sodd, the Trøndelag stew he grew up on.
