Miia Järvenpää has had a long and winding journey from being the only woman at the meeting table to being part of an equal work community. Because of her own experiences, she is now encouraging other women to enter the industry and take pride in their achievements.

Finding peace in kilometres. Once you have seen the biggest boom and the worst downfall of the IT industry, you are no longer startled by small bumps in the road. Matti Lupari knows that the same rule applies equally to life, IT and riding a bike: rushing gets you nowhere. Life finds its way.

To celebrate Women’s Day this year, we gathered up 4 women amongst our amazing Siilis and asked them to tell their career story, in their own words, as well as some thoughts about what it is to be a woman in the field of IT.

We will publish one story every day during the rest of the week.
Let us introduce, Anna, Heli, Taru and Emma.

Marek is a seasoned expert in many fields – a doctorate, who’s proved his adaptivity in his studies as well as in his work. On his journey from robotics into programming and applied mathematics he’s become somewhat of a popularizer of data science. His passion is clarifying mathematical models to all those who are wanting to understand them.

Believe it or not, Caroline actually started out as a biology student. She’s always possessed a very scientific attitude, which ultimately led her to Siili. In her opinion, a designer needs to be willing to reach the final truth, and our knowledge-based approach is key to that.

World citizen Sanna is happy not to fit in. She’s moved around a lot, both in and out of Finland, having lived in Sweden and Italy to name a few places. Along the way, she’s learned to adapt to different cultures, and she’s been heavily influenced by them. Eventually, she was drawn to Siili due to our proactive approach to technological challenges.
