Summary
Taavi Kõosaar is a seasoned technology leader and CTO with over a decade of experience building and scaling SaaS platforms, currently leading engineering and GRC-focused product strategy at Nooga. His career spans hands-on roles from software developer and architect to VP Engineering, with deep expertise in DevOps, ALM, cloud (Azure), and continuous delivery—skills recognized by 11 consecutive years as a Microsoft Visual Studio ALM MVP. Taavi combines product-minded engineering with organizational design, talent development and measurable delivery processes, having driven pan‑European SaaS architecture and migrations at EU‑Supply and Chinsay.
