Hi, I'm Troels
Software Architect & Senior .NET Developer

How I can help
Helbo Software is a small, personal business. I take on well-defined tasks and advisory work alongside my permanent job, so you get senior experience without hiring a full-time consultant.
Cloud migration
I move databases and services from your own servers to Azure, so you stop running hardware and get a platform that can grow.
Modernisation
I upgrade legacy platforms and search solutions to supported versions without bringing the business to a halt.
Architecture & integration
I advise on architecture, carry out reviews and build integrations that get your systems talking to each other.

About me
I'm Troels Ford Helbo, and in my day job I'm a senior software developer and architect at EDC. Before that I was a consultant at Commentor, delivering work for DR, the Danish Maritime Authority and Aller Media among others.
My route into software wasn't a straight line. I managed a shop for several years, studied at DTU and KEA, and taught future developers at KEA. That taught me to explain technology in plain language and to take ownership of getting things finished.
Helbo Software is my own business. When you call, I'm the one who answers, and I'm the one who does the work.
