Summary
Jaakko Wallo is a Senior Software Developer with 11+ years of full‑stack experience building APIs, ETL systems and tooling primarily in Go, Java and Ruby on AWS-backed PostgreSQL/MySQL platforms.

Comfortable across MacOS/Linux, zsh/vim and JetBrains IDEs, he thrives on system integrations, developer tooling and resilient backend services. His background spans consulting, customer-facing support, and leadership roles including co‑founding an ICT services firm and managing SaaS support teams, so he combines technical depth with stakeholder and project management skills. A book-loving neophile with a taste for puns, he brings persistent curiosity and multidisciplinary creativity to engineering problems.
