@hawanatraheem
Backend engineer specializing in fintech infrastructure and cross-platform mobile development to ship secure, scalable APIs.
NigeriaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a Backend Engineer focused on building secure, production-grade fintech and healthcare systems. As a Software Engineering Intern at Cortex 3.0 / OnePipe, I contributed to real-time fintech API integrations and implemented secure financial data flows aligned with PCI-DSS, working closely with senior engineers through agile practices, Git, and structured code reviews.
In addition, I’ve been hands-on with DevOps and cloud deployment as a Cloud Engineering Intern at Semicolon Labs—setting up CI/CD with GitHub Actions, Dockerizing applications, and supporting scalable infrastructure. I’m especially proud of projects like my full-stack Maternal Emergency Response system (JWT + RBAC, Flutter real-time alerts, Termii API integrations) and an onchain certificate verification platform built with Sui to eliminate forgery through trustless, publicly auditable verification.
