Backend Engineer at Plently building fintech APIs and secure payment workflows.

Nigeria

Message

At Plently, I design and maintain NestJS and TypeScript APIs for a fintech platform serving thousands of daily active users. I work across backend delivery, from technical design and database modelling to deployment and production support.

I integrated Stripe and local payment providers for secure payment processing, reconciliation, and transaction workflows. Automated Jest and Supertest suites now cover more than 85% of core functionality.

Previously, I led Nigerian banking API integrations at Zeeh Africa and built backend services for Scholarly's social and career platform. I also built a talent-management backend at Segsalerty and published BuildPost CLI, which turns Git commit history into AI-assisted social media posts.
