Vetted API developer in Nigeria (UTC+1)

A unique engineer with vast experience in developing enterprise grade software applications. I possess great analytic abilities, software design skills, passion for automation, and, by way of soft skills, an expert touch typist. I have been building enterprise level software for over 5 years now. Having worked across financial industries, e-commerce and networking, I believe that I am a well rounded engineer. As reflected on my CV, I am a force to be reckoned with when it comes to data structures and algorithms - I currently hold the #1 rank in Nigeria on Hackerrank. With regards to tools, I have worked with several of them such as Java, Hibernate, MySQL, Git, JUnit, CI/CD and Bash. I have a bit of leadership experience mentoring and guiding intern engineers to build customised products that meet the customer requirements and environment. I look forward to joining a world class organisation where I can apply my entire skillset into building quality software that satisfy the needs of our customers.

Vetted API developer in Nigeria (UTC-5)

I am a software engineer with 6 years’ experience architecting and developing synchronous and asynchronous RESTful/GraphQL/GRPC distributed microservice, SQL/NoSQL database and event-driven solutions development with the occasional frontend development in a variety of programming languages, frameworks and clouds. I grew the most professionally at Microsoft. I was in charge of a Badges awarding project for Yammer users. I created a new efficient strategy of batching large logical related objects and a lockless way of making partial and incremental changes through it which was 100x better than the previous strategy. My co-workers say I have Analysis and Problem solving abilities.

Vetted API developer in Nigeria (UTC+1)

As a full-stack developer with a keen analytical mindset, I combine technical expertise with a commitment to delivering high-impact projects that solve real-world challenges. I bring a balanced skill set that spans from backend development and data analysis to intuitive front-end design, allowing me to approach projects holistically and tackle complex issues with precision. In my recent projects, I led the development of a predictive modeling system for the English Premier League, where I created a custom API to gather, clean, and normalize historical game data. By applying machine learning algorithms to this data pipeline, I developed predictive insights that not only generated accurate game forecasts but also highlighted player performance trends—proving valuable for users looking to make data-backed predictions. Additionally, I built a school management portal using React, a solution that streamlined data management for educators and provided real-time access to critical information, ultimately enhancing productivity and engagement across school communities. I am deeply motivated by projects that require attention to detail and critical problem-solving, especially those with a data-driven focus. Self-motivated and proactive, I have a track record of quickly adapting to new tools and challenges, always keeping usability and scalability in mind. With each project, I aim to create solutions that are not only efficient but also adaptable to future needs, and I am eager to bring this mindset to new opportunities that prioritize innovation and high-quality development.
