What I do

Product engineering

I take products from rough ideas to polished, production-ready applications—shaping the system architecture, designing clean APIs, and building fast, intuitive interfaces and AI-driven workflows end to end.

  • Full-Stack Architecture
  • API Design
  • AI Workflows
  • Performance

Systems & infrastructure

Underneath the user interface, I design and build the core services that keep software fast, fault-tolerant, and scalable—working across distributed systems, storage engines, network protocols, and concurrent workloads.

  • Distributed Systems
  • Database Internals
  • Networking
  • Concurrency

Research & writing

I break down complex topics in applied cryptography, zero-knowledge proofs, and systems engineering into clear, approachable essays—turning dense math and specifications into working code and practical intuition.

  • Zero-Knowledge Proofs
  • Applied Cryptography
  • Protocol Design
  • Technical Writing

Experience

  1. Software Engineer

    Zynta

    Mar 2025 – Oct 2026

    Cross-border stablecoin and fiat payments platform processing $1B+ in volume. Remote.

    • Led development across the customer, enterprise, and admin web platforms—including instant virtual IBAN issuance—for a payment network handling over $1B in volume.
    • Engineered the core swap and transfer flows across on-chain and banking rails, building fault-tolerant recovery paths that kept financial discrepancies at zero and transaction reliability above 98%.
    • Shipped an interactive in-app AI assistant that guides users through complex workflows and renders dynamic UI steps directly in chat, reducing customer support tickets by over 40%.
    • Architected an audit-grade, double-entry ledger to track every fiat and crypto deposit, swap, and withdrawal as a single source of truth across the platform.
    • Configured streaming database replication and read-replica routing to strengthen data durability and cut primary database load by 70%.
  2. Blockchain Developer & Tutor

    Web3Bridge

    Aug 2024 – Present

    Developer accelerator and Web3 engineering community. Lagos, Nigeria.

    • Mentor cohorts of 30+ engineers weekly on blockchain architecture, applied cryptography, and zero-knowledge proofs.
