Summary
Mikko Tamminen is a Full Stack Engineer based in Helsinki with 12 years of experience building small, robust, and repeatable web services using Node.js, React (favoring a strictly functional approach), and Docker. He combines software craftsmanship with hands-on electronics and embedded programming, often creating projects where code interacts with physical hardware like 3D printers and CNC routers. As a longtime freelance engineer and former workshop teacher at a youth art center, he brings both independent delivery discipline and the ability to explain technical ideas clearly to diverse audiences. His background includes industrial IT systems and university-level course assistance, reflecting a blend of practical and academic experience. Outside code, he applies creative skills in music, photography (SLR workflow) and visual arts, which inform a minimalist, design-conscious approach to engineering. That mix of maker-minded hardware experience and functional front-end expertise makes him especially effective on projects spanning cloud services to the physical world.
