NigeriaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a frontend-focused software engineer building production applications for Nigerian startups and SaaS teams. As a core engineer on getticket.ng, I’ve worked end-to-end across organizer and attendee experiences, including offline-capable PWA flows, role-based dashboards, and design systems.
I’m strongest in React, Next.js, and TypeScript, and I deliver high-velocity features with measurable impact—like offline QR ticket verification for venues with poor connectivity and an IoT dashboard UX improvement that boosted engagement by 15%. I also enjoy diagnosing tricky UI issues (like production carousel and rendering bugs) and shipping responsive, accessible, SEO-aware interfaces using an Agile/Scrum mindset.
