Jaakko Saarenketo
I’ve been working in the software industry since 2009. I started with my own startup and then moved into more stable entrepreneurship. Since 2021, I’ve been working full-time in software companies, which eventually brought me to my current position at Knowit Experience.
I’m more of an artist than an engineer, but there has always been a spark that drives me to solve problems, and it became clear that the easiest path to doing that was to dive headfirst into coding.
