I build software around how a business actually works: first versions for founders, internal tools for teams, and AI added to workflows that already run.

Selected work
What I've Built
Client builds and my own products. Each write-up covers the problem, the decisions and what shipped.
Orbit: A Companion That Remembers Your Work
A quiet companion in your Mac's menu bar, built so that after a holiday, a weekend or a switch between projects you can get back to where you were in a minute or two instead of twenty.
Gripco: Lab Information Management System
A lab ran its work across Excel sheets, paperwork and a few disconnected tools. Gripco brought every sample, from intake to final report, into one system with roles, audit trails and live status.
Hire-on-Rank: Hiring on Performance, Not Resumes
A hiring platform where developers prove themselves in timed hackathons and recruiters hire from the scores, not resumes. Any commit pushed after a team submits is caught and shown to the judges.
Career Genie: AI Career and Scholarship Guidance
My final-year project: a prototype that matches students to career paths and scholarships from a verified dataset, using RAG so each recommendation traces back to a real source.
Services
How I can Help
Three ways to work together. If your situation doesn't fit one of them, tell me what's going on.
Build the First Version
A new product or an internal tool, taken from idea to working software real people use. We decide together what launch needs, then I build it end to end.
Add AI to Your Workflow
I look at how the work happens today, find the steps where AI actually helps (reading documents, searching what you already know, drafting, sorting) and build it into the tools you already use, with clear limits on what it does without a person checking.
Fix an AI-Built App
If most of your app was written with AI tools like Cursor, Lovable, Bolt or Claude Code and it's now slow, insecure or scary to change, I review it, fix what's dangerous first, and leave it in a state a developer can keep building on.
Stack
What I Build With
The tools I reach for most. The problem decides the stack, not the other way round.
Product
Interfaces people use every day, on the web and on iOS and Android.
Backend & Data
APIs, data models and the business logic between them.
AI
Models wired into real workflows, with limits on what they can do.
Systems & Infra
Desktop apps, deployment, and keeping it all running.
Experience
Where I've Worked
From a logistics internship to leading full-stack builds at DotCode, and now building a product from scratch at Aurmak.
Full Stack Developer
Aurmak
Full-Time- Building the backend for Aurmak Pulse, a building intelligence platform, from scratch: a NestJS and PostgreSQL API that takes in live data from building systems over MQTT.
- Took over the Next.js frontend and connected it to the new API, so facility teams see energy, carbon, air quality and occupancy in one place.
- Own the product end to end, from the data model and API design to the UI and the day-to-day workflows it supports.
Full Stack Developer
DotCode Solutions
Full-Time- Led full-stack builds in Next.js and Django, including Gripco, a lab information management system, and Hire-on-Rank, a performance-based hiring platform whose backend I built.
- Shipped two iOS and Android apps with Capacitor, each with its own Django backend: a ride-hailing app for events with live tracking and in-app payments, and an expense-sharing wallet with phone sign-in.
- Built real-time features on Django Channels and FastAPI WebSockets, from live location tracking to chat with file sharing.
- Built a company intranet with employee and admin portals, and content-managed sites on Next.js and Strapi, including DotCode's own website.
- Integrated payments and AI services into client products: Stripe, Paystack, OpenAI, Gemini, Whisper, ElevenLabs and Hume AI.
Front-End Developer
DotCode Solutions
Full-Time- Built the frontends for GetSetCV, an AI resume builder, and MindHush, an AI support companion, including streaming chat and print-accurate PDF previews.
- Built Next.js frontends and dashboards for client products in compliance, real estate, publishing and e-commerce, working against REST APIs with backend engineers and designers.
- Improved load times and accessibility across client apps.
Full Stack Intern
Ezee Logix
Internship- Built two MERN web apps and a React Native mobile app from scratch for logistics operations.
- Integrated FedEx and internal logistics APIs to automate shipment tracking.
