Petri Silen is a seasoned software developer working at Nokia Networks in Finland with industry experience of almost 30 years. He has done both frontend and backend development with a solid competence in multiple programming languages, including C++, Java, and JavaScript/TypeScript. He started his career at Nokia Telecommunications in 1995. During his first years, he developed a real-time mobile networks analytics product called "Traffica" in C++ for major telecom customers worldwide, including companies like T-Mobile, Orange, Vodafone, and Claro. The initial product was for monitoring a 2G circuit-switched core network and GPRS packet-switched core network. Later, functionality to Traffica was added to cover new network technologies, like 3G circuit-switched and packet core networks, 3G radio networks, and 4G/LTE. He later developed new functionality for Traffica using Java and web technologies, including jQuery and React. During the last few years, he has developed cloud-native containerized microservices with Java and C++ for the next-generation Customer and Networks Insights (CNI) product used by major communications service providers like Verizon, AT&T, USCC, and KDDI. The main application areas he has contributed during the last years include KPI-based real-time alerting, anomaly detection for KPIs, and configurable real-time data exporting.
During his free time, he has developed a data visualization application using React, Redux, TypeScript, and Jakarta EE. He has also developed a security-first cloud-native microservice framework for Node.js in TypeScript. He likes to take care of his Kaapo cat, take walks, play tennis and badminton, ski in the winter, and watch soccer and ice hockey on TV.
