Who am I

I am a product management and development specialist with over 15 years of work experience. Currently, I am a process owner at OP financial group (starting 06/2020) leading the customer feedback and complaint processes. Previously, I was the leader of the Oulu office and senior product management consultant at Contribyte (2 years). Before that, I worked over 13 years at VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland in various research roles in close collaboration with national and international ICT companies.

My speciality is modern software development methods and practices (i.e. agile, lean and continuous development) and their use in a variety of organizations and market situations. I have extensive knowledge of planning and forecasting in software intensive businesses (such as strategic, business, product and release planning and roadmapping). My main strengths are a curious mind and eagerness to learn new things.

I am solution oriented and proactive. I can also manage large entities and I take pride in taking initiatives to their goal using analytical thinking. I have excellent communication and people skills and I am active in networking and organising events. During my customer work, I have been described as service minded and positive.
