Yuri Bushnev is a Helsinki-based VP of Engineering with 11 years of experience building and maturing cloud-native, high-scale systems and engineering organizations. At AlphaSense he progressed from hands-on system quality and DevOps work to leading multiple engineering tribes, standing up Security, SRE, QA Platform and Cloud Platform domains, and driving acquisition integrations and budgeted technology strategy. He blends deep technical fluency across Java, React, Kubernetes, Terraform and GCP/AWS with practical product stewardship and delivery discipline (OKRs, career frameworks, QA and observability standards). Early startup CTO experience and a background in performance-focused engineering give him a strong instinct for resilient architectures and measurable operational improvements. Notably, he has repeatedly moved teams from ad hoc practices to repeatable, platform-driven delivery models while remaining engaged in technical decisions.
