Hi, I'm Atte Leppänen, a dynamic and detail-oriented professional with experience across AI testing, localization, prompt engineering, game testing, and search engine evaluation. I work fluently in English, with Finnish as my native language, and I also have working proficiency in Swedish and Japanese basics. I enjoy turning complex problems into clear, actionable solutions and collaborating with diverse teams to deliver high-quality digital experiences. As a freelance language specialist, translator, and game designer, I combine linguistic precision with UX-focused thinking and data-driven testing. I'm passionate about AI safety, data labeling quality, and creating engaging content across media and games. Although I have not previously held a role identical to this one, my experience working with large language models has given me highly relevant, transferable skills. This work has required careful fact-checking, evaluating source credibility, structuring complex information logically, and presenting findings clearly and concisely. I am comfortable synthesizing large amounts of information into well-organized outlines and prioritizing accuracy and clarity. In addition, I have a strong personal interest in societal and interdisciplinary topics, and I have completed university-level coursework in psychology, philosophy, and religious studies, which has further developed my analytical thinking and research skills.
