Lagos, Nigeria · Backend and AI Engineer

Backend engineer designing reliable systems.

I build backend and AI systems that stay dependable when the real world gets messy.

Selected work

Focused case studies in reliable automation and applied machine learning.

Job Search Agent

FastAPI · LangGraph · PostgreSQL

A multi-user job intelligence pipeline that filters deterministically before LLM scoring, then persists explainable results and sends idempotent digests.

Melanoma Detection

EfficientNet · BiLSTM · Streamlit

A Streamlit research prototype that turns a trained EfficientNetB6 + BiLSTM model into an interactive lesion-image classification workflow.

Experience

Recent backend and cloud work. Full history is in my résumé.

Backend Engineer

Undergraduate study in mathematics.

How I work

I care most about the seams where reliable software usually fails: ownership boundaries, retries, duplicate delivery, weak connectivity, expensive model calls, and incomplete observability.

My work spans Python and TypeScript services, relational data modeling, asynchronous jobs, cloud infrastructure, and applied language models. I prefer explicit invariants and small operational surfaces over fashionable complexity.

Let’s build something dependable.

I’m available for backend and AI engineering roles.
