Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolOlli Ahonen is a seasoned CTO and co-founder with 13 years of experience building product-focused engineering teams and shipping reliable cloud-native services. He combines hands-on engineering in Scala, TypeScript/React and cloud platforms (GCP/AWS) with strong product sense from roles leading software organizations at IQM, Kivra and Nousua. Olli is equally comfortable designing data pipelines and control software for quantum computing as he is driving consumer-facing digital services, and he favors lean practices: release early, iterate, refactor. As a manager he emphasizes empowerment, ownership, and self-organization, hiring top talent and giving teams problems to solve rather than prescriptive solutions. His background in experimental and theoretical quantum information informs a pragmatic, research-calibrated approach to complex technical challenges. Outside work he’s a pianist and dad who values good coffee and sustainable team culture.
