About me

Founder and CEO at Niodi Oy. Modern day tech-freak and fancier of bleeding edge tech.

Experienced in Full-stack Development, Software Architecture Design, Serverless solutions, Mobile Application Development, DevOps and Cloud Services.

I'm a professional, easy-going person that gets along well with people. In my work I strive to develop clean, secure and eco-friendly code, while trying to find the optimal solution by weighing business requirements, user needs, performance and maintainability. I emphasize open communication even in difficult matters.

In my spare time I travel the world and dabble with legos, tech and food.

I've had the pleasure and opportunity to work with awesome people in the field in multitude of different projects.
