02 / A LITTLE ABOUT ME

Curious by nature.
Engineer by craft.

I’m a senior software and platform engineer with 7+ years of experience designing and operating backend systems, cloud infrastructure, and developer platforms.

I work across the full lifecycle: architecture, implementation, deployment, observability, and incident response. TypeScript, Node.js, Kubernetes, GCP, and AWS are central to that work.

Alongside product engineering, I teach backend development at AltSchool Africa and build AI-assisted learning workflows at Skillgora. Mentoring and code reviews are part of how I help teams build better software together.
