Mikko Hämäläinen

My tasks are customer relations and sales related, I am keeping the existing customers happy while continuously seeking new ones to help with their web application related challenges :) I also do general management and of course my own share of consulting and training. And during the time I have left, I try to spread PHP-awareness wherever I can!

In my work at Brain Alliance Solutions I got to wear many hats. I did pre-sales, consulting, training (mainly Zend's PHP courses) and of course also a lot of PHP programming. I was positioned at the Finnish real estate agency Igglo Oy from the beginning of my career at BA until late 2008 and worked there as a consultant. My tasks included software developing, scrum mastering the team and working as a project manager.

At eMedia my main responsibilities were to develop and maintain the company products, which include the eMedia CMS (which is a content management software) and eMember (which is used in managing and billing memberships for different associations). Used technologies included PHP, JavaScript, MySQL, MSSQL and PostgreSQL. In addition to my regular work as a developer I did pre-sales and training for all the products the company was offering.
