He holds a Bachelor's in IT Systems Development from TalTech and progressed from an intern improving Twilio Sync’s TTL REST API to a senior role, evidencing rapid growth and ownership of production features. Siim has full-stack experience from early internships and trainee projects, and led a five-person software team during his conscript service in the Estonian Defense Forces Cyber Command.
