Software Engineer · Lagos, Nigeria

Building real products people actually use.

3+ years shipping production software across fintech, SaaS, and developer tooling. I specialise in complex step flows, real-time systems, reconciliation dashboards, where the engineering has to disappear and only the experience remains.

about

I'm a software engineer in Lagos with 3+ years of shipping production software fintech operations dashboards, SaaS backends, event platforms, and developer tooling. I've built consumer flows, subscription funnels, internal tools with RBAC, reconciliation, and reporting systems.

What I enjoy most is building flows, real-time systems, dashboards where the engineering has to disappear and only the experience remains. I like owning something from design handoff to production, writing tests, and fixing what breaks when real users hit it.

  • When every step has different product rules

    Collaborated on the Islamic Financing Booking flow on Mizan — multi-step selection, PRD-aligned calculations, collateral uploads, and edit/restructure flows so bank relationship managers never restart from scratch.

  • Zero to production-ready backend

    Architected EventFlutter’s NestJS APIs from scratch — multi-role auth with OTP verification, vendor escrow payments, ticketing, and notifications across FCM, email, and in-app via RabbitMQ.

  • Ops tools people open every morning

    At KiaKia Finance, shipped multi-role admin dashboards, reconciliation workflows, DVA management, merchant invoicing, and Playwright E2E tests across the flows that keep money moving.

  • More than frontend on a SaaS team

    At Daply, wired up Stripe billing, Twilio WhatsApp/SMS, GoHighLevel CRM sync, CMS author APIs, and scheduled digest emails — the kind of work that sits behind the UI.
