AI/NLP developer based in Helsinki. Researcher and engineer — I build things with language models, from fine-tuning open-source LLMs to shipping RAG systems in production. Comfortable across Python, C++, and whatever the problem needs.
- Software development — backend development, API design, cloud deployment, full development lifecycle from prototype to production
- LLM applications — RAG pipelines, vector databases, fine-tuning, prompt engineering, evaluation
- NLP research — PhD in computer science, computational linguistics, low-resource languages, multilingual model fine-tuning
- PyData Helsinki 2026: Teaching AI to Write Poetry in Three Languages — live demo
- PhD, University of Helsinki — language technology for Sakha, Norwegian, Finnish
- Shipped a Danish tax law assistant (RAG, OpenAI GPT) from prototype to production; experimented with fine-tuning Mistral/Llama
- Led creation of NorQuAD — the first question answering dataset for Norwegian, published at NoDaLiDa 2023
- Open-source morphological analyser for Sakha (Turkic, Siberia, ~450k speakers) — 90% coverage, published at LREC 2022
