I'm a software engineer with 7+ years of experience designing scalable systems across fintech, media, and civic technology. Based in Abuja, Nigeria, I'm passionate about leveraging technology for social impact.
I've architected platforms tracking over ₦1.9 trillion in public projects, built AI-powered fact-checking systems serving 13,000+ users across West Africa, and co-founded a mobile banking platform advancing financial inclusion across Nigeria.
My work spans backend architecture with Django REST Framework, cross-platform mobile development with Flutter, containerized deployments with Docker, and cloud infrastructure. I've collaborated with global AI organizations on model evaluation, code intelligence, and safety alignment — and have published research at IEEE conferences.
