What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build production backend or full-stack products where I can own architecture, scalable APIs, real-time systems, and deployment while continuing to solve complex engineering problems.

I've built and deployed full products for Skyfig Technology, Techvoto, and iPace, spanning Django REST APIs, PostgreSQL schemas, React applications, authentication, and production infrastructure. At Skyfig, I built Duduzili's backend from scratch, including 16+ Django models, custom OTP verification, single-device JWT sessions, Redis caching, and real-time WebSocket chat.

As Techvoto's sole developer, I shipped an 18-page React EdTech platform connected to 25+ live Django REST endpoints, with course management, mentor booking, lab sandboxes, certificate verification, and silent JWT refresh. I also designed WitzClass as a seven-layer scalable architecture using Django, Redis, PostgreSQL read replicas, NGINX, Cloudflare, Celery, and Cloudinary.

I enjoy turning computer science fundamentals into practical engineering decisions, from normalized database design and stateless APIs to debugging production WebSocket and server-process issues. I use AI tools thoughtfully to accelerate architecture, debugging, and feature delivery while owning work end to end.
