Sami Surakka

Before Sami joined, the design work was expensive and significantly slower. With Sami's help, Groke's design process became twice as fast and half as costly.

Juha Rokka, CEO @ Groke Technologies

I recommend Sami as a highly professional product designer who creates high-quality product solutions. When we worked together, Sami took on responsibilities well beyond product design and worked as a full-stack product person: creating product analytics dashboards, coordinating releases, communicating them internally and externally, including video walk-throughs, writing a monthly product newsletter, and many others. His particular strength is that he is always open to feedback, new ideas, and a collaborative way of working, which makes working with him smooth and pleasant.

Roman Nikolaev, CTO @ Cambri

The development team greatly benefited from Sami in planning the implementation, and based on the teams' feedback, Sami iterated the designs as needed. Over the year, the appearance of the products evolved in a more professional direction, making them pleasant to use.

Teemu Ekola, Head of Business @ Tietoevry Care (Data & AI)

Sami has a great ability to turn complex ideas and constraints into clear, intuitive solutions. He challenges when needed, always keeps the user in focus, and is incredibly easy to collaborate with.
