I'm a Technical Support Engineer with over 14 years of experience helping people get the most out of technology — supporting both hardware and software, from hands-on device setup to SaaS deployments and API integrations. I work across the full IT support lifecycle — requirements gathering, on-site installation, application support, quality assurance, and production deployments. I help customers with their applications, set up software solutions right where they need them, and make sure support processes are in place so customers get dependable, consistent service. Based in Finland, available full-time.

I am currently involved in the application process for Saranen Future ICT Skills Academy's recruiting training program. I am looking for a partner company in the Tampere region where I can start an on-the-job learning period in the ICT field.

About Me

Jul 2015 – Sep 2024

Served as the primary technical contact for enterprise clients across the full lifecycle — from requirements gathering to post-go-live support. Acting as the bridge between clients, project managers, and software developers, I translated business needs into technical requirements and ensured smooth communication across teams throughout the project. Deployed and maintained SaaS systems for access control, visitor management, and workforce solutions across 9 years. Supported API integrations using Postman and SoapUI, wrote SQL queries that reduced manual reporting effort significantly, and consistently maintained high SLA compliance across a busy client base. Documented all processes and troubleshooting guides in an internal knowledge system used by both technical and non-technical teams.
