Hi,

I am Finn. I am a “Product Quality Specialist” and Lead Consultant at ThoughtWorks, a global software consultancy.

And as there are many ways to build what we consider a “good” product – most certainly, there is not the one way – there are many perspectives, too. Here I share some of my own perspectives:
