Über mich

I have setup software companies and built their operations from scratch in Silicon Valley (USA), Barcelona and Finland. My roles varied from business to coding for which I still arrange some time just so I do not lose my touch on engineering. One of my best assets has always been bridging the gap between business and engineering, ensuring that both sides are happy and productively working together. As a CTO I do find myself supporting my peer with various matters such as product strategy especially on more technical side, project management, architecture / infrastructure, and anything related to DevOps and processes really. I am a huge fan of Google Cloud and AWS.
