Uzochukwu Victor
@uzochukwuvictor
I build scalable full-stack platforms, microservices, and mobile apps from architecture to production.
What I'm looking for
I've built and led production platforms for Rentt, SmatVirtual, Diaspora, Instant Ease, and mDoc, spanning property technology, iGaming, dating, delivery, and digital healthcare.
At SmatVirtual, I helped scale a gaming platform to handle up to 50,000 bets per minute, migrated a legacy PHP system to event-driven NestJS microservices, and led developers through technical strategy and delivery. At Rentt, I served as the sole developer for the end-to-end property technology platform across web, backend, and mobile.
I build with NestJS, Node.js, React, React Native, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, Redis, Kafka, gRPC, Kubernetes, and CI/CD tooling. I take ownership from architecture and APIs through deployment, monitoring, maintenance, and scalable product delivery.
