Summary

From 2004 to 2017 I worked as a software engineer for different
companies in Estonia and Finland e.g. Tieto, Nokia, F-Secure, Ericsson to name a few.
Since 2017 I've been working as an independent contractor with a wide range of technologies and practices such as DevOps and Continuous Integration, in public and private sector projects with on
premise containerization solutions and public cloud such as AWS and Azure.
I've been contributing to open source, e.g. Debian operating system, going to conferences, giving talks and acquiring certificates.
My interest lies particularly in release process automation and software development process improvement. For example, I consider software developers to be the first hand customers for DevOps specialists.
