BIOGRAPHY

Hey there! ๐Ÿ‘‹ I'm a Full-Stack Software Engineer based in Helsinki, currently leading engineering at Soil Scout where we ingest 6.5M+ telemetry records every hour.

My day-to-day mixes Python (Django), React, PostgreSQL/TimescaleDB, GCP, GitHub Actions, and Ansible, building the systems and pipelines that turn raw IoT data into something useful. I love the full-stack span: shaping a product idea on a whiteboard, building it end-to-end, and shipping it through CI/CD.

Outside of work I run community events, teach programming to kids and entrepreneurs, and dig into whatever new tech catches my attention. Sharing knowledge is half the fun.

My bigger dream is to point my tech skills at problems that matter, environmental and health tech especially. I genuinely believe software can make the world a better place, and I want to be part of that.

At the end of the day my approach to coding is pretty simple: start from first principles, team up with great people, and never stop learning. Let's build something. โœจ
