Adebayo Lucas
@adebayolucas
Senior software engineer specializing in scalable SaaS backends, performance, DevOps, and AI/ML feature integration.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Software Engineer with 8+ years delivering scalable SaaS platforms and distributed systems. I specialize in PHP (Laravel) and Vue.js/Nuxt with TypeScript, with working knowledge of Go and Python (FastAPI). I’m especially motivated by performance optimization, DevOps, and integrating AI/ML features into real products.
At Frontier Dental CA, I led the phased modernization of a high-traffic Laravel e-commerce monolith while keeping it fully operational, sustaining 99.9%+ uptime via small, feature-flagged increments backed by strong logging and monitoring. I eliminated recurring production errors and payment failures by untangling and consolidating pricing and discount logic. I also authored PHPUnit test suites and mentored the team through code reviews and technical sessions.
Previously at SeamlessHR, I led migrations to a multi-tenant SaaS, reduced infrastructure costs by 70% for 1,000+ clients, and improved performance (including reducing latency by 30% for a testing engine handling 20k+ concurrent users). I also drove frontend migration to Vue.js + TypeScript (improving performance by 70%), optimized Redis + AWS SQS queues (cutting task-processing times by 50%), and shortened CI/CD deployment time by 60%. I’ve also pioneered LLM-based candidate scoring and semantic search using embeddings + FAISS across 2,000+ clients.
