Marc Leander Pilgaard

Senior Software Engineer

I'm a senior software engineer with over a decade of experience ranging from high-frequency algorithmic trading to immersive real-time simulation. This width gives me a strong perspective on performance, reliability, and scalability at scale.

At Norlys Energy Trading, I was one of the primary developers on a 24/7 autonomous trading platform operating at scale across multiple European energy markets. Before that, at Kanda, I architected a multi-user VR training platform that dramatically reduced physical training costs for enterprise customers.

Through Arrow Farm Software I now offer these skills to teams who are in need of enhancing their capabilities, whether that's leading a greenfield build, untangling a complex architecture, or steadying a project under pressure.

What are your needs?

Each company is struggling with different pain points depending on where they are in their development cycle. Regardless of where you are I can quickly jump in take action. Some options are:

Greenfield System Build

From architecture to production

Are you brewing on a new complex system and want to ensure you are doing it right from the start? I take ownership of the full engineering process from architecture decisions and tech-stack selection through implementation, testing, and deployment.

Architecture design & tech-stack recommendation

Distributed system or simulation platform implementation

CI/CD pipeline & Kubernetes deployment setup

Handover documentation and knowledge transfer

System Rescue & Scaling

Performance, stability, and clarity

Bottlenecks, instability, or a codebase that's grown beyond its architecture? I diagnose and resolve complex technical problems bringing structure, performance, and reliability back to your platform.

System audit and bottleneck analysis

Architectural refactoring and service decomposition

Observability & monitoring uplift (Grafana, alerting)

Load testing and performance benchmarking

Technical Leadership

Steady the ship, drive delivery

Project at risk? Deadline approaching? I step in as a senior technical force aligning the team, collaborating with stakeholders, managing complexity, and ensuring the project gets delivered to a high standard.

Technical lead role on existing or new team

Cross-functional collaboration with domain experts

Delivery management under strict deadlines

Mentoring developers and raising the team's technical bar
