CEO/COO/CTO | Builds & Scales Digital Ecosystems | 30+ yrs in Ecommerce & Distrbution | Growth-Driven Tech Executive
🚀 Transforming ideas into scalable digital solutions From an early age, I have been fascinated by how technology and strategic thinking can drive business success. Over the past 30+ years, I have been at the forefront of digital transformation, building and scaling e-commerce platforms, optimizing business operations, and leading product innovation. At Garasjetid.no, I took on the challenge of launching and scaling a B2C e-commerce platform that has grown exponentially since its inception in 2019. By leveraging cutting-edge technology and streamlining operations, I have ensured not only revenue growth but also increased efficiency across the board. Before this, I played a key role in shaping Komplett Group's digital strategy, leading market expansion, product lifecycle management, and multi-million EUR projects that significantly boosted revenue. Whether it was securing long-term business deals, implementing new IT infrastructures, or optimizing supply chains, my focus has always been on driving measurable results. 🔹 Key achievements: ✔️ Led a revenue growth from €180M to €595M at Komplett ASA ✔️ Built and managed a high-performing purchasing and product marketing team of 55 people ✔️ Successfully executed M&A projects and launched multiple private label brands ✔️ Developed and launched Garasjetid.no, scaling it into a thriving online business I thrive in environments where technology, strategy, and execution intersect. My approach is simple: find opportunities, create scalable solutions, and execute with precision.

IT admins use zero-touch enrollment to preconfigure company-owned Android devices. This document explains how device resellers can use zero-touch enrollment to help their enterprise customers save time provisioning devices. Zero-touch enrollment stores a customer's provisioning config for a device. After starting up, a device checks for a provisioning config. If a customer has assigned the device a config, the device provisions itself. The device downloads and installs the customer's chosen device policy controller (DPC) app. The DPC app, using the customer's config data, provisions the device.

Cultural Fit Analysis
The candidate's project history shows a strong entrepreneurial spirit and a focus on business growth and optimization across various industries (e-commerce, logistics, IT). The diverse roles from Managing Director to CTO and Board Member suggest adaptability and a broad understanding of business functions. However, the projects are heavily focused on business and operational management rather than deep software engineering, which might indicate a cultural fit more aligned with leadership or product management roles within a software engineering context, rather than a hands-on coding role. The lack of specific software development technologies in project descriptions limits the assessment of direct software engineering cultural fit.
Soft Skills & Operational Fit
The candidate's extensive experience in managing director and CTO roles, coupled with project leadership, indicates strong leadership, strategic thinking, negotiation, and customer engagement skills. The focus on optimizing supply chains, e-commerce operations, and IT strategy suggests a strong operational fit for roles requiring a blend of technical oversight and business acumen. The project descriptions highlight initiative and problem-solving capabilities.
