Okon Jeremiah
@okonjeremiah
I build scalable React and Next.js products across fintech, healthcare, e-commerce, and travel.
What I'm looking for
I built Dokita’s telemedicine platform as its sole frontend engineer, delivering five dashboards, 110+ routes, real-time messaging, video consultations, appointment booking, payments, and role-based operations.
At GradientFI, I engineered a fintech dashboard with KYC/AML workflows, financial metrics, spend controls, payouts, vault operations, and OpenAPI-generated clients. I’ve also shipped e-commerce, flight booking, and tour-booking products with search, filtering, secure payments, and SEO-focused Next.js experiences.
I enjoy solving complex product problems with clean, maintainable code, collaborating across teams, and building responsive interfaces that make workflows simpler for users.
