What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to grow my skills in backend development and work on innovative projects that challenge my abilities.

I'm Nathaniel Abolarin, a dedicated backend developer with a strong foundation in building scalable web applications. Currently, I work at the Africa Institute for Technology and Innovation, where I design and develop RESTful APIs using Laravel, ensuring that our core platform features are robust and efficient.

My experience includes managing database structures in MySQL and MongoDB, participating in code reviews, and collaborating with teams using Git and Trello. I have successfully built full-stack applications, such as a Football Ticket Sales Platform and a Shortlet Apartment Booking System, and other personal projects, most of which involved payment integration and a focus on user experience.
