Hello Kjetil! Can you tell us a bit about your role at Nordlo?

I work as a project manager for the establishment of new customers and as a senior systems consultant at Nordlo in Haugesund, where I have been for 15 years. My areas of focus are server operations, various types of public clouds, information security, authentication systems, virtual servers, and various productivity tools.

What does a typical working day look like for you?

A typical working day for me involves a lot of planning and preparation to establish new clients. As a senior systems consultant, I also support my colleagues when more technically advanced issues arise. Additionally, I enjoy helping our clients with their challenges, and I see it as a good opportunity to guide and educate my more junior colleagues.

What I am most proud of is being able to contribute to making the daily work of our customers easier.

What have you previously worked with?

Before I started as a systems consultant, I worked for ten years as a team leader and with computer repairs. I really value that experience in my daily work because it feels like I understand all the components and parts more thoroughly than I otherwise would have.

What is it like to work at Nordlo?

I really enjoy my job! We have a great community in the office and it feels fun to go to work.

What I appreciate the most, and what is also the most developmental for me, is the influence I have regarding the various technical solutions we work with. When you are as technically interested as I am, the freedom to choose is important to create the right bespoke solutions.

What do you do in your free time?

When I'm not at the office, I enjoy spending time with my family. I have children who play floorball and football, and I like to attend their activities. Otherwise, I am very interested in music, primarily heavy metal. I also spend a lot of my free time on the computer; I just can't seem to get away from it.

What challenges do you see in the industry in the future?

I believe that the biggest challenge will be the transition to hybrid or Cloud Only. For many businesses, it can be difficult to truly understand all the benefits that cloud solutions provide, and it will be our job to help our customers understand how important this is and will become in the future. I truly believe in a more cloud-based future, and in many ways, the future is already here.
When I speak with our customers about the transition to the cloud, it is important that I focus on security and create solutions that the customer feels comfortable working in.
