Hi, I’m Rafael Ormiskangas, a full-stack TypeScript developer from Finland. I built StripeCATS, a live streaming and creator monetization platform with real-time rooms, token payments, VOD, and production-style test and security gates, all shipped as a solo project. I’ve implemented a scalable, AI-assisted product development approach and established governance around code quality, security, and end-to-end user journeys. I’m fluent in English, native in Finnish, and enjoy turning ambitious ideas into robust software that users actually love. I thrive in 0→1 product delivery, leading autonomous task queues, CI verification, and a structured rule-based engineering process. My work blends strong frontend/backend craft with a pragmatic approach to product, AI-assisted workflows, and rapid iteration. In my spare time I explore evolving AI tooling and how to apply governance to engineering pipelines for safer, faster delivery.…Hi, I’m Rafael Ormiskangas, a full-stack TypeScript developer from Finland.
