Tech Wizard
I am a technology professional with 15+ years of experience in software development. I focus on building software that is robust, understandable, and maintainable while keeping delivery pragmatic and product-driven.
My background spans hands-on coding, architecture, and technical leadership across multiple product domains. In recent years, I have worked extensively with agentic software development, both by building my own coding agent and by applying coding agents as part of real engineering workflows. This has included coding agent engineering, context engineering, and the design of reliable, observable workflows for software delivery.
I prefer strongly typed languages and write most of my day-to-day code in TypeScript, Kotlin, and Rust. Over the years, I have also worked with a wide range of languages and paradigms, including Go, Haskell, and ReasonML.
Outside work, I enjoy sports, good coffee, and time with family.
Best way to reach me is LinkedIn.

Dim is a software factory I am building, still in development: a command-line tool that coding agents use to run my development workflow. Agents do the work that needs judgment, and Dim handles everything else, with a human at the decisions that matter. At its core is a local record of everything my agents ever did, which they check before starting new work.

Neochess is a mobile chess app, not yet released, that plays against an engine running on the phone. I wrote the engine from scratch in Dart: move generation verified against the published perft counts and an alpha-beta search with quiescence. The board and pieces are my own too, so the app depends on no GPL-licensed engine or artwork.

Hoodly is a marketplace that fills idle capacity at Finnish neighborhood businesses: nearby consumers claim recurring deals and redeem them in person. I built the platform end to end, from the API to the web and mobile apps. I am also building an AI agent that helps run Hoodly. It already supports our team and consumers through chat, and businesses come next.

Acolyte is an open-source coding agent I built to control the full stack from user interface to model integration. It runs as a self-hosted daemon with a terminal client, supports multiple model providers, and uses persistent memory to maintain context across sessions. Optional cloud sync provides portable agent identity across machines. It is designed for transparent, controllable operation and built with a small dependency footprint, strong test coverage, and a focus on fast iteration.
