Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolPetri Mäkinen is a Senior Software Developer with 12 years of experience building reliable, maintainable FinTech and enterprise SaaS applications, primarily in Java with Spring and Vaadin. He blends a strong academic foundation (MSc in Computer Science from University of Helsinki, plus studies at Aalto and an exchange at Singapore Management University) with practical product work at companies like OP Financial Group, BC Platforms and Solita. Petri is passionate about craftsmanship—prioritizing usability and clean, modifiable code—and brings a pragmatic curiosity by experimenting with Android, Groovy, React and other languages in side projects. An early tinkerer inspired by Gyro Gearloose, he channels that inventor’s mindset into automations and small apps (e.g., a work-hour tracker) that solve real user problems.
