Senior🎓
Top SchoolMarkus Ojajärvi is a Senior Full Stack Developer based in Helsinki with six years of hands-on experience building and maintaining Finland’s social benefit and allowance systems at Kela. He bridges front-end technologies like React.js and Thymeleaf with Java Spring Boot back-ends to deliver reliable, user-focused features in a highly regulated domain. Starting from customer-facing cashier roles, he brings practical empathy for end users and a pragmatic approach to solving real-world problems. Markus combines steady operational ownership with ongoing feature development, ensuring systems remain maintainable and compliant.
