What do you love most about your job?

I started my path as a software developer in an era when computers were slow. Back then, creating effective solutions required a lot of creativity and thinking beyond standard approaches. This is what I love most about my job: creating efficiency through creativity.

What does your ideal Saturday look like?

My ideal Saturday involves cooking, spending time outdoors with my kids, exploring new places, and learning something new.

What’s one of your favorite or proudest DISQO moments?

One of my favorite moments at DISQO is when Terhi Norokorpi, our People Operations leader, takes the entire Finnish team for walks before lunch during onsite days. It’s a great way to bond, get some fresh air, and recharge together.

What was the last TV show you binge-watched?

Sherlock. He's my favorite character. I read Conan Doyle’s stories when I was a child, so watching the show brought back great memories.

What’s something most people don’t know about your role?

Most people don’t realize that software engineering isn’t just about coding. It’s a blend of problem-solving, collaboration, and understanding user needs. We spend a lot of time planning and designing systems—often the most challenging part of the job. Plus, with technology always evolving, continuous learning is essential. It’s a role that combines technical skills, creativity, and adaptability.

Tell us one fun fact about yourself!

I have a tradition of buying a mug in every city or country I visit, and over time, it’s grown into quite a collection! It’s a fun way to relive past adventures with each cup of coffee or tea.
