Senior Software Engineer
Since 2015
I build the infrastructure that everything else runs on. Nine years across fintech, telecoms, and network infrastructure. Systems that have to work at scale, under pressure, without excuses. Now I'm bringing agentic systems and LLM-powered workflows into how software gets built.
Over nine years building the infrastructure that everything else runs on. Experienced in designing, scaling, and operating resilient distributed systems across fintech, telecommunications, network infrastructure, and financial services, with a strong track record of owning products and platforms from inception to production at scale. Known for deep technical expertise, a hands-on engineering approach, and building reliable systems under real operational pressure. Currently integrating agentic systems and LLM-powered workflows into how software and services are built.
Built Monieworld, a cross-border fintech app, owning core product and compliance systems including onboarding, KYC, referrals and gamification, AML, ongoing monitoring, etc., shaping their evolution from early build to scale. Now evolving and scaling those systems at global scope, and running agentic AI and LLM tooling as live infrastructure inside engineering workflows.

Led the backend team for Smartcash PSB, a mobile money platform running at millions of transactions a month. Profiled and tuned service-level bottlenecks across the request lifecycle, cutting latency in the hot paths.
Owned core engineering on the Transfer Service, one of Nigeria's most critical payment rails processing millions of transactions monthly. Engineered high-throughput, resilient systems for reliable operation under heavy load, with fault-tolerant and failover designs ensuring stability during peak traffic conditions.
Developed and maintained services that hooked into core banking applications, detected anomalies in real time, and routed compliance exceptions to the appropriate authorities without human triage. Built tools to automate reconciliation workflows across multiple product lines and account types.
Built low-level network APIs interfacing directly with infrastructure devices at the IP/networking layer, forming the foundational layer powering the SME Empower service. Designed and delivered the billing engine, recharge pipeline, and CRM on top of this infrastructure, along with internal tooling for device administration, virtual infrastructure management, IP allocation, and audit workflows.
First production system. Designed and delivered a full management platform from scratch, digitising a paper-based real estate operation into a structured electronic system.

I listen to music the way I read code. What decision was made. Why. The arrangement, the layers. What comes in and what drops out. I'm learning the guitar and slowly working toward producing music.
Fast game, honest feedback loop. You either read the spin or you don't. Zero chill at the table.
I like the constraint of it. Finite pieces, infinite lines. Blitz or long game, the board doesn't care. It's all pattern recognition. See it. Commit. Move.
