Suominen Tommi

Senior Information Architect

Description

I am an interdisciplinary expert focusing on e.g. software solution development, forest-based sector, bioeconomy and circular economy, with working experience from both science and industry. In my present role as a senior information architect at CSC, my current topical focus is the (semantic) interoperability of IT services for research and education. I currently coordinate the EU project FAIRCORE4EOSC. I am experienced in research, software development, team leadership, project management, EU research funding acquisition and scientific writing. I understand both commercial software development and the needs of researchers. I'm an outwardly oriented person, experienced in presenting my work and networking, with knowledge of several languages. I am also one of the main developers of the sustainability impact assessment methodology ToSIA ( http://tosia.efi.int/ ), which was the topical focus of my PhD hobby project. I have also coordinated the software development of the Intregrate+ tools for field training on integrating biodiversity protection with commercial forest management (http://iplus.efi.int/).
