My name is Arttu Ylärakkola, I'm guy born in '76 who loves cats, arcade games and old sci-fi movies. I've been working with various startups, mainly in CTO roles, since mid-2000s. In 2016 I founded a company called VibeCatch and successfully exited by selling it in 2023.

I also co-founded a consulting company called Rakettitiede in 2011. We are currently hiring, so don't hesitate to contact us - or me directly - if you're interested in Clojure / Scala / Java / iOS / Android / C++ / Kotlin / Typescript / Elm / JavaScript / CSS or whatever your experise may be.

I have been in cohabitation with my girlfriend, Kirsi Salo, since the previous century.
