Career Profile

I am an experienced data professional who likes working with both the cultural and technical aspects of data. I currently work as a senior data consultant at Recordly. Being a founding member of growth-oriented data consultancy has taught me a lot about the business side of data, too.

As a people lead I helped my team grow in their roles and paths in Solita and also managed internal development efforts. Recruitment has also been a part of the job. As a consultant I worked with our biggest customerships in different roles, such as Solutions Architect, Product Owner, Data Engineer etc.

Data Scientist

May 2014 – May 2016
Solita Oy

We started an internal start-up focusing on bleeding edge data solutions both in terms of tooling (cloud services, big data tools) and what we were solving (Big Data, Data Science, Machine Learning). My role was doing pre-sales, PoCs and some long-term customer cases too. I worked primarily on AWS.

Business Intelligence Specialist

Aug 2012 – Apr 2014
Solita Oy

I transitioned to the world of BI/DW within a customer case I was working on. I used traditional ETL tools such as SAP BODI, SSIS, Talend and reporting tools like Cognos. During this time we also started our first AWS assignments. There I worked as a lead developer with Java and Vanilla JS.

Software Developer

Mar 2010 – Jul 2012
Solita Oy

I worked in our company's largest project at the time: a tailormade ERP with a huge scope. I worked on maintenance and end-user support at first - gradually shifting to new development as I learned the system. Tech stack was the classic Java EE of the time: Java 6, Spring, JSP, Hibernate, MuleSoft for integrations and Oracle as the DB.
