I’m seeking a remote Software Engineer, QA Engineer, or Product Engineer role where I can contribute to development, testing, and product improvement. I value ownership, continuous learning, strong teamwork, and building reliable software that solves real-world problems. I’m open to full-time and long-term contract opportunities.

What I'm looking for
I’m a software developer, product builder, and technology leader with hands-on experience designing, developing, testing, and deploying digital products. I currently work as a CTO and co-founder at Blue Opus Software, where I’m involved in both the technical and product sides of the business, from system architecture and application development to product decisions and delivery.
My core development experience includes React, TypeScript, JavaScript, Tailwind CSS, Supabase, TanStack Query, REST APIs, and modern web application architecture. I have built and worked on production systems involving payments, financial management, dashboards, invoicing, user management, reporting, and business operations. One of the products I have helped build is Master Fees, a financial operations and payment platform for schools. The platform has processed more than K1.7 million in transactions and has involved integrating payment infrastructure, handling financial data, building dashboards, and developing workflows for schools and their customers.
I’m particularly interested in building products that solve real operational problems rather than simply creating software for the sake of it. I enjoy taking an idea, breaking it down into technical and product requirements, designing the solution, building it, testing it, and continuously improving it based on how people actually use it.
Quality is also an important part of how I approach development. I have experience identifying bugs, testing features and user flows, investigating technical issues, and thinking about software from the perspective of both the developer and the end user. I’m interested in QA, software testing, product engineering, and roles where I can combine technical problem-solving with a strong understanding of the product itself.
Outside of software development, I’m passionate about game development, storytelling, and interactive experiences. I write novels and short stories and have a strong interest in game design, narrative design, and building immersive worlds. I’m currently exploring Unreal Engine and game development, particularly systems involving dynamic gameplay, atmosphere, AI, and cinematic third-person experiences.
I’m especially interested in remote opportunities where I can work with ambitious teams, contribute to meaningful products, and continue growing as a software engineer, QA professional, and technical product leader. I enjoy learning new technologies quickly, taking ownership of difficult problems, and working across disciplines to turn ideas into working products.
