I can't believe the last post was in 2025. I feel a bit sad about that.
Anyway, here we are: a new job and a new post. Writing helps me gather my thoughts and cement them. There is no big new topic today; I simply left my role as Head of Cloud at Sanoma Media Finland and became the Engineering Manager of a platform team at Scandit. I've been here for two days, and the company's organization has already surpassed my expectations. I feel like I am finally back in an environment where I belong.
A Note on Ethics and AI Use: Transparency is important. For this article, I used AI tools to augment my discussion and explore phrasing, as well as to assess SEO performance and readability. While AI helped refine ideas and highlight optimization opportunities, all insights, examples, and analysis are the product of my own experience and judgment. AI served as a support tool, not a replacement for critical thinking or human perspective.
