Veli-pekka Nurmi is a Senior Software Developer based in Helsinki with 15+ years of experience shaping and delivering digital products across public sector, energy, telecom and SaaS domains. He blends hands-on full‑stack expertise (React, Next.js, TypeScript, Node.js) with product-ownership skills, moving projects from requirement definition and system design to production and iterative improvement. Comfortable leading cross-functional teams, he has driven architecture and UX improvements for complex, long-lived systems and rebuilt contract‑monitoring and AI‑agent SaaS platforms. Pragmatic about maintainable architecture, he favors schema-driven, spec-first workflows and actively adopts AI-augmented tooling to speed design, coding and validation. Past roles span startup R&D leadership—scaling a SaaS marketplace to €1.4M ARR and enabling US expansion—to consultancy work in IAM and telecom self‑service portals. Beyond coding, he brings an analytics and automation mindset that surfaces hidden product optimizations and reduces operational friction.
