I'm a backend-focused software engineer based in Lagos, Nigeria.
I’m building my foundation in backend engineering, Linux systems, Git, and software development through consistent hands-on practice.
- 🐹 Learning and building with Go
- 🐍 Developing with Python
- 🐧 Strengthening my Linux and systems skills
- 🔧 Practicing professional Git and GitHub workflows
- 🗄️ Learning and working with PostgreSQL
- 🐳 Learning Docker and containerized development
- 🌐 Building and studying APIs and backend systems
I'm currently focused on becoming a stronger software engineer by:
- Building projects instead of only studying theory
- Understanding systems from first principles
- Improving my Git and collaborative development workflow
- Writing clearer, more maintainable code
- Documenting what I learn
- Contributing consistently every day
A practical software engineering and Git workflow project used to develop my understanding of professional development practices, documentation, branching, pull requests, and repository workflows.
An opportunity discovery and tracking platform designed to help people find relevant internships, apprenticeships, and other short-window opportunities.
Planned stack: Go, Python, React, TypeScript, PostgreSQL
My hands-on Go learning repository, where I work through Go fundamentals and progressively build my understanding of the language.
A financial decision-support application concept focused on helping users think through the financial impact of sending or spending money before completing a transaction.
A project-based learning platform concept designed around practical software engineering challenges and progressive skill development.
These projects are works in progress. I'm documenting the process as I learn and build.
