Summary
Severi Salminen is a full-stack software developer based in Helsinki with a decade of experience delivering user-facing features and backend APIs, primarily using TypeScript, React, Node and functional languages like Elm. At Futurice he has worked across the stack—integrating PostgreSQL, PouchDB/CouchDB, WebSockets, Docker and AWS infra tooling—while participating in both planning and implementation for client projects. He pairs pragmatic engineering with a taste for functional programming and reactive patterns (Redux, RxJS), and has shipped production services that include account sync and deployment automation. Before software he trained and performed as a professional violinist with the Finnish National Opera, a background that surfaces in his collaborative, disciplined approach to complex problems. He completed a Master’s thesis at Aalto University while already contributing to client projects, demonstrating an ability to balance research-level thinking with hands-on delivery.
