Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMikko Lehtimäki is a Co-Founder and Chief Data Scientist with a decade of experience building AI-native products at the intersection of software and computational neuroscience. He holds a PhD in computational neuroscience and has translated that deep technical foundation into commercial impact—accelerating AI roadmaps for SaaS and deploying state-of-the-art speech AI for heavy machinery. Mikko combines hands-on engineering (robotics, Android, Linux, Java, Python) with customer-centric product delivery, bridging research rigor and pragmatic scaling. An active open-source mindset and academic background give him a knack for turning complex models into robust, production-ready systems—often finding elegant reductions from theory to engineering. Based in Tampere, Finland, he’s equally comfortable on the factory floor or in the lab, and yes, coffee plays a meaningful role in his problem-solving routine.
