A Bit About Me
Hi, I'm Juhani, an ISTQB® certified Software Tester and English-to-Finnish translator. I'm a native Finnish speaker, and I currently reside in sunny Barcelona, Spain. I've always had a knack for languages and technology.
I grew up in Finland, and over the years, I've dedicated myself to honing my translation skills, specializing in translating web content from English to Finnish. People often turn to me for proofreading websites and apps in Finnish, ensuring that they resonate perfectly with the local audience.
In addition to translation, I have a passion for streamlining work processes. I hold a certification as a Lean Six Sigma Green Belt, which means I excel at finding innovative ways to optimize workflows.
My experience in software testing covers a wide range of projects, including mobile apps, websites, and desktop software. I've worked with various tech projects, ensuring that software is in optimal condition for deployment.
What sets me apart is my ability to communicate fluently in both English and Spanish, guaranteeing effective and transparent communication throughout our collaboration.
However, I'm not all work and no play. When I'm not in front of a screen, I indulge in my passion for mountain biking and hiking in the picturesque mountains of Barcelona.
By having me on your team, you gain access to a skilled translator and software tester who excels at process improvement. I serve as your bridge between languages and technology, enhancing the efficiency and quality of your projects.
