I build scalable AI recommendation engines, vector search, and cloud-native applications.
What I'm looking for
At Escape Ventures, I architect production-grade AI recommendation engines using OpenAI embeddings and PostgreSQL pgvector across products, videos, images, community posts, livestreams, influencers, and brands. I built hybrid vector and SQL search delivering sub-100ms responses and reduced API costs by approximately 80% through multi-tier caching.
I've designed bilingual GPT-4o-mini workflows for content generation, sentiment analysis, classification, and structured outputs, while improving PostgreSQL query performance by 40–50%. I'm also driving an Ollama migration targeting under-one-second inference and 50% lower costs.
Across Andela, Kinship, Litmus, IdearRating, Nabda Care, and IT Solution, I've delivered Rails, .NET Core, Node.js, Angular, Vue.js, Ember.js, and mobile applications at scale. My work has improved performance, reduced downtime, accelerated delivery, and supported products serving more than 500,000 active users.
I lead technical execution, mentor engineers, and teach problem solving, algorithms, and system design through ITshare and Information Technology Institute.
