About Me

Open to Senior & Founding Engineer rolesRemote · Lagos, Nigeria (WAT / UTC+1)

I'm a software engineer with 5+ years building production systems end to end. I'm currently one of five founding engineers at Veilo, a privacy protocol on Solana, where I co-designed the Rust and Anchor programs and the off-chain services behind shielded balances, username-based private transfers, and in-wallet swaps — with zero-knowledge proofs generated on the user's device and settled through a relayer network.

In parallel I lead a five-developer team at Alpha Developments, owning architecture, sprint planning, and code review across several Web3 product lines — a real-time trading system, a live-streaming platform, and an AI agent marketplace with 2,500+ registered users. Most of that work sits where a hard backend problem meets an interface someone actually has to use: NestJS and Node services, PostgreSQL, MongoDB and Redis, queue-backed pipelines and WebSocket infrastructure, with Next.js and React Native clients on top.

I'd rather own something from design through production than hand it off at the API boundary — the schema, the deploy pipeline, the monitoring, and the bug report that lands three weeks later. I've shipped to web, iOS, Android, and browser extensions, and I'm equally at home writing a Solana program in Rust or cutting a release for the App Store.

Skills

I work across the full stack, with a focus on clean code, performance, and adaptability to evolving project needs.

Front-End Development

I design and develop user interfaces for websites, web applications, mobile applications, DApps and utilities focusing on creating responsive, visually appealing, and user-friendly, seamless, interactive frontends that integrate effectively with secure backend systems.

Backend Development

I build and manage server-side applications, ensuring they are efficient, secure, and scalable for handling data and user requests.

Web3 Development

I develop decentralized applications (dApps) and web3 utilities on blockchain platforms, primarily using EVM-based chains and Solana, to create secure, scalable, and user-friendly solutions.

Mobile Development

I develop mobile apps that are fast, intuitive, and cross-platform ready. Whether it's building with React Native or optimizing for iOS and Android, I focus on performance, clean architecture, and delivering a seamless user experience.

Other skills include

Smart contracts (for Solana using Rust)

AI Powered Platforms

Automated bots (on Telegram and X)
