Greatest achievements
As a manager of the SW engineer's team in the Space and Defense department, I lead a growing group of 22 talented professionals. This role is both challenging and rewarding, particularly as we continue to build the team and deliver key projects. I’m also proud to have taken part in the Mobile Networks Talent Woman Program within the People Pillar team, where we focused on diversity hiring initiatives. That experience strengthened my commitment to inclusive recruitment and creating a supportive company culture — something I care about deeply.

A friend invited me to apply as a software developer, so I did. When I got the results from the assessment test – the examiner informed me that I failed the exam but suggested me a QA position. I immediately jumped on the opportunity without knowing what QA was. The manager offered me that opportunity in the company as he knew my learnability. Nokia provided training, coaching, and mentoring, and I enjoyed the work. As I developed my knowledge, an architecture and specification position opened, and I was excited about it. But I thought I was not yet ready for the role. I consulted my manager about it and asked for his opinion, and he encouraged me to go for it and to try it out. Fast forward to hardship and several leaps of faith, and I am excited to grow and try new things. This year I started my new position. Looking back, I am grateful to mention three key points: 1. Don’t be afraid to try new things. There’s no additional knowledge if you already know it – what is QA? 2. Develop your knowledge. Learning is a never-ending process: if you don’t know – study! 3. How will you know if you don’t try? You might regret it one day if you haven't tried.
