What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role in telecommunications where I can grow and contribute to innovative projects.

I am a dedicated telecommunications engineer with a B.Sc. in Electrical/Electronic Engineering from Afe Babalola University. My academic journey was marked by leadership as Vice President of the Nigerian Engineering Society and a successful capstone project on IoT-based smart grid systems. I am passionate about leveraging my skills to drive organizational success and improve operational efficiency.

In my professional experience, I have worked as a Fiber Support Officer at Oasis Management Company, where I maintained and repaired fiber optic networks, significantly improving customer satisfaction ratings. My role in the Networking Unit during my NYSC at Backbone Connectivity Network Limited allowed me to install and configure networking equipment, optimizing network configurations and reducing downtime. I thrive in collaborative environments and am committed to delivering innovative solutions that align with organizational goals.
