Karsten Nielsen
IKEA IT AB
Senior Systems Engineer
I work as a senior systems engineer at IKEA IT AB in the hybrid-/private cloud team focusing on topics around compute, network, service mesh, multi cloud, etc. Open Source and cloud native advocate and enthusiast by heart, using Linux and other open source tools to build products and platforms since 2000. Firm believer of DevOps- and KISS principles. I live in the greater Copenhagen area with my family. I am “unfortunately” having my hobby as my job so I run a mini cloud on PI’s for hosting my personal tech stack, nextcloud, mail, gitlab etc. Outside tech, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, 3D archery, running, and out door life in general.
