At Gafia Technologies, I architected and built GafiaPay, a virtual-account payments platform that processed ₦294M. I also contributed to fintech products including PayBills Pro and PayNest Studio, which had 500,000 combined users.

I set up production Linux servers and secured them with server hardening, firewall rules, SSH access control, and automated SSL/TLS. I also built CI/CD pipelines for automated builds, tests, and deployments across web and backend services.

At Sabikuk, I built and released an iOS and Android app with React Native, from architecture through App Store and Play Store launch. I also designed an AI pipeline that turns recipe videos into structured recipes and nutrition data, and implemented subscription billing and media delivery.

At Suntecnic Software Development, I led web and mobile delivery for government digital projects, owning architecture, code review, and release. Earlier, I developed and maintained production mobile apps at Algoprime Technology, including iOS apps with 50,000 downloads, and built applications for state government services at Katsina State ICT Directorate.
