I have been working at the Tampere University since 1999. In the years 1999-2003 I worked at the Department of Translation Studies on different teaching and research positions. In 2003 I was appointed as a senior lecturer of Russian language and Translation Studies. In 2008-13 I worked as an acting professor. I was appointed as a professor of translation studies (working languages Russian and Finnish) 1.1.2014.
