Who is Arttu?

I love solving complex problems and working collaboratively with teams to achieve great outcomes. With close to 15 years of experience in the field, I'm a generalist who enjoys taking on a variety of challenges and constantly learning new things.

My focus is on hands-on software development, and I pride myself on writing high-quality code that meets the needs of the business.

However, I believe that the performance of a team is more critical than any individual's skills, and that's why I am also passionate about studying and improving teamwork and shared leadership. I'm always seeking ways to help teams work more effectively together without relying on traditional command and control structures.

I believe that diverse teams collaborating and working together with a shared purpose are key to achieving the best outcomes. It's not something that happens automatically - it needs to be fostered and nurtured.

I find meaning in doing work that matters and being committed to achieving positive outcomes. I love an environment in whch teams have a high degree of autonomy and they can self-organise to meet the challenge at hand. Titles don't define what you can (or are allowed) to do - what matters is making good things happen.

I’m still learning how to combine all my interests in an optimal way to get the best outcomes.

I expect that learning path to take the rest of my career.

Humans as collaborative digital tool makers is an interesting viewpoint.

You can find me on Mastodon or LinkedIn.

I also write to Developer Collective.
