NigeriaWhat I'm looking for
I am a software engineer experienced in building scalable applications using microservice architectures, with hands-on work across frontend and backend technologies. I have contributed to B2B/B2C financial lending systems and responsive e-commerce platforms that improved engagement and order placement.
My technical work spans React.js, Node.js, Express.js, Nest.js, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Docker and AWS, and I have applied BPMN to streamline application processes and reduce processing time. I delivered reductions in downtime (up to 40%) and efficiency gains (over 30%) through architectural and process improvements.
I value problem solving and teamwork, and I hold a Scrum Fundamentals Certification; I seek roles where I can continue designing resilient, efficient systems and collaborate with cross-functional teams to drive measurable product impact.
