            <p>
                I am a software engineer currently based in Helsinki, Finland, with a deep knowledge of web-based apps
                and APIs. I am interested in writing code that is readable, (appropriately) scalable and
                well-architected.
                I am always curious about new paradigms, patterns and tools.
            </p>
            <p>
                In my spare time I write poetry and fiction, read a lot of books and dabble in improvisational theatre
                and windsurfing. I also contribute to open source projects when I have the energy!

                    of IoT devices. Migrated the service from Heroku to AWS. Developed
                    a more advanced permission system. Developed a "batch operations"
                    API for common tasks in the UI (think e-mail batch operations).

                    robust DevOps pipeline instead of manual deployments, bringing deployment time
                    down from hours/days to minutes (on both AWS and AWS China).
