@toluadedeji
I build scalable fintech applications, modernize systems, and lead full-stack engineering teams.
What I'm looking for
I've led full-stack engineering at EasyPay and NextPayDay, modernizing monoliths into microservices, building billing products from scratch, and protecting financial workflows from duplicate transactions. I also set up CI/CD, scalable deployments, role-based access control, encryption, caching, and database optimization.
Previously, I built interactive React network charts and search experiences at Expectoo, automated loan processing at Quiwer, and a real-time raffle application and learning management system at Softicu. I enjoy open-source collaboration, mentoring engineers, and turning complex product requirements into reliable software.
