My resume

Lauri Annala

Sofware Developer, M.C.S student

Currently

Specialized in

Software design and architecture.

Interests

Functional programming with erlang and elixir. Efficient system development with c++ and rust. Improving my workflows with unix-tools such as vim, emacs, tmux and zsh. Making friends at work and having mostly productive, yet always fun pair-coding sessions. When I code by myself, I listen to dark ambient or snes soundtracks as background music.

Reading books about software, horror, fantasy, religion, philosophy, mysticism and wisdom
Jamming to heavy metal songs with guitar
Playing and making my own computer role-playing games

Computer skills

I’m experienced with multiple programming languages, mainly elixir/erlang/otp, c#, c++ and javascript. I’m familiar with functional programming and design patterns. I’m also fluent with object-oriented programming. I have good knowledge and experience with both relational and nosql databases.

My preferred development environment is unix-based machine with vim, emacs, tmux and zsh. I know my way around IDEs such as visual studio and intellij idea. I will not tremble in fear if I’m suddenly dropped in a remote bash shell.

I’m passionate about code and I learn new languages and codebases fast.
