Summary

Seasoned professional Software Engineer with over 17 years of experience in developing

and managing administrative information technology systems.

Personal Data

Name: Michael Jari Suodenjoki

Date of birth: 16'th of September, 1967

Place of birth: Frederiksborg Slotssogn, Fredensborgvej 61, Hillerod (Denmark)

Nationality: Danish

Matrimony: Unmarried

Children: None

Military service: None (Frinummer)

Social engagements: Like to travel, read books (fiction just as well as non-fiction), see

friends and family, going to the movies, see TV, to cook, to photograph, cycling,

swimming, skiing, trekking and exercising other sports .Languages: Fully fluent in Danish and English. Minor fluent in Swedish. Minor

comprehension in Norwegian, German and French.

Miscellaneous: Non-smoker.

In 2006 I was still photographer on the movie Rules of War (2006)

In my spare time I have in 4 year period (1995-1999) been member of - and for 2 years

been chairman of - the local community of owner-occupied flats (in Danish:

ejerlejlighedsforeningen).

Experiences

Offshoring: Working with offshored developers involving e.g. task assignments, weekly

skype meetings, formulating written tasks, coaching developers etc.

Product management: As product manager I've been responsible for developing and writing

product roadmaps and manage product from requirement specifications through release

together with customers, partners, marketing, sales, production, architecture design and

development individuals.

Project management: As a project manager I've been managing two international projects in

Sweden and Hungary with frequent onsite presence. In both projects I were in close contact

with the customers project management and project group - including end-users. A crucial

part of the management was to control requirements, set expectations, manage error

reporting and change requests and to be a direct part of the actual software development

design within the project.

Software development: I have been software developer on several projects and have been

part of building a C++ component based software platform for compliance solutions. I'm a

true believer in standards and would always try to find new ways that can enforce the use

of these standards (e.g. design patterns or tools). Building or using utilities and tools

that can help in making better software have always been one of my main interests.

Teaching: Throughout the years I have been teaching. First as an assistant teacher in

several computer courses at Danish Technical University. In my current job I have

developed several courses for our international customers.

Technical Writing: As product manager and developer I've been responsible for writing

technical and user guide documentation of high quality.

Synopsis

Resume:

After finishing my Master Degree in 1994 I started in a small department (15-25 persons)

within CRI that developed compliance solutions for the international market and branded

under the name ESKORT.

I have been working with the same people - even though different companies during the

years formally have overtaken the management.

By 2011 I became involved in training and working with offshored software developers,

stressing the need for precise written communication and regular online meetings.

By 2006 I became product manager with responsibility for two key international products -

one of them being a traditional COTS product.

In 1995 and 1999 I worked as project manager in international projects with close

customer contact.

By 1994 I was involved in the development of the first C++ based Windows version of a

customer solution.

I'm a high believer in that to be successful part of the IT industry you need to be up

front with the technical details. Only in that way you're able to - as a manager - to

discuss the different problems (satisfactorily) that may arise within a project.

Throughout the years I have always been involved in actual design and programming on the

sideline to my managing roles - for me it is not a matter of one-of but both-of. When I'm

doing software development I'm usually involved in the basic C++ modules of solutions. I'm

using design patterns, component based design, web design, tools and techniques for build,

production and release management.

Two of my interests lies in User Interface Design and Compiler Design, though in recent

years its getting harder to find the time to catch up on these subjects.
