Hi, I'm Bruno

I am an Architect, Mentor, Coach, Speaker and Advisor.

I work in Cloud, DevOps, Security, Data & AI.

About

portrait.jpg

I work as Vice President of IT Operations at Fortum and regularly advise and help different organisations with technology and digital transformation topics.

Based in Helsinki, I work in areas such as Cloud, DevOps, Platform Engineering, Cyber Security, Data & AI.

Throughout my career I worked in a wide range of positions from senior management to deep technical roles.

I am passionate about culture and digital transformation and have been involved in several projects from both the human (Leadership, Coaching, Mentoring) and technical (Cloud, Security, DevOps, AI) perspective.

For freelance work, I founded exce.pt. Reach out if you want to hire me for services such as coaching, speaking, architecture, training, advisory or other type of contract work.
