About

Professional summary

I am a Senior Fullstack Developer with more than 10 years of experience building secure, scalable web applications from end to end. My work spans frontend development, backend systems, API design, cloud infrastructure, and e-commerce and fintech integrations.

I have more than eight years of experience with React and Next.js, building responsive, high-performance interfaces using modern JavaScript and TypeScript practices. I focus on maintainable component architecture, performance optimization, and user-focused product experiences.

On the backend, I have extensive experience with PHP, Laravel, Node.js, Express.js, relational and NoSQL databases, and RESTful and GraphQL APIs. I have designed systems that handle high request volumes and support multiple web and mobile client versions.

I have deep experience integrating payment providers including Paystack, Flutterwave, Stripe, and PayPal. I build reliable transaction flows with webhook handling, authentication, input validation, and security practices aligned with OWASP guidance.

I am comfortable working across AWS infrastructure, Docker-based environments, CI/CD pipelines, and Agile teams. I have led development teams, mentored junior engineers, contributed to technical architecture decisions, and delivered products used by more than 100,000 end users.
