Full-Stack Software Engineer | 5+ years shipping production systems
I'm a full-stack software engineer with 5+ years building impactful, user-focused
products across Fintech, Education, IoT, Web3, Sports, Dev Tools, and Health.
I pair strong backend engineering with solid frontend craft to ship systems that are
scalable, observable, and reliable in the hands of real users, not just demos.
I'm now extending that foundation into Agentic AI engineering: building LLM-powered
agents and RAG systems on top of the same production discipline (clean data flow,
testing, and debugging) that my backend work is built on.
Backend & Infrastructure
- Languages: Node.js, Go (Golang), Python, TypeScript
- Databases: PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis (SQL/NoSQL hybrid); pgvector for embeddings
- Cloud & DevOps: AWS, Azure, GCP; Docker, CI/CD pipelines, Linux/VPS deployment
- BaaS: Supabase, Firebase, Appwrite, AWS Amplify, PocketBase
Frontend
- Frameworks: React.js, Next.js, Vue.js, React Native, Capacitor, Flutter
- Language & Styling: TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, Ant Design, Material-UI, Tailwind CSS, ShadCN
Agentic AI Engineering
- Frameworks: LangChain, LangGraph (stateful/multi-agent orchestration)
- Patterns: RAG & agentic RAG, ReAct, tool/function calling, structured outputs,
multi-agent workflows, MCP (Model Context Protocol)
- LLMs: OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, open models via Ollama
- Retrieval & data: vector databases (pgvector, Pinecone, Qdrant, Chroma),
embeddings, semantic search
- Observability & eval: LangSmith, Langfuse
Testing & Quality
- Test-Driven Development with Jest, Playwright, Cypress, Storybook, React Testing Library
- End-to-end test pipelines and QA integrated across the development lifecycle
Notable Projects
- Serene Mind โ a telehealth SaaS connecting therapists and patients with paid
online sessions, built-in video/audio, and Stripe-style session payments.
Next.js, React, TypeScript, Supabase, with custom CI/CD. (Core dev & tech lead)
- SchoolBook โ a finance, academics, and administration platform managing records
for 1,000+ students across 20+ schools. React, Vite, TypeScript, Node.js, PostgreSQL.
- GigGap โ a skilled-labour marketplace for West Africa (electricians, plumbers,
and other pros โ clients), live on both the App Store and Google Play.
- Waziup IoT Lab โ a learning platform for IoT serving 2,000+ daily active users.
Go, React, Vite, TypeScript, PostgreSQL. (Lead developer)
- Porai AI โ an AI-powered math-solver app (in development).
What Drives Me
I build software that works and lasts. My approach centers on scalability, clean
data flow, and user-centric design, and I like environments where I can investigate
deeply, communicate findings clearly, and keep learning, most recently by moving
into agentic AI. If you need someone who can own a problem end to end, let's talk.
