I have a passion for building scalable and secure backend systems. In my previous role as a Backend Engineer at Sycamore.ng, I extended the platform's features to enable direct lending and borrowing between users. I also put security measures in place to protect against attacks and unauthorized access. I worked with advanced PostgreSQL features to ensure optimal performance and fast server response for over 20,000 users.

I have also integrated with over 5 third-party service APIs, including payment and KYC APIs, and developed a system for documenting over 100 APIs. Outside of my full-time role, I have also worked on personal projects such as "What Song Is This," a Twitter bot that utilizes the Twitter and Shazam APIs to identify songs in videos, and Afrihub, an academic research paper repository.

One project I am particularly proud of is Certlify, an online system for creating and issuing certificates dynamically to multiple users. I collaborated with a team to design and develop the platform, which has issued certificates to over 2000 users. In the project, I played around with HTML canvas to create a working prototype on which the main system was built. I worked with Express, MongoDB, JsPDF, HTML canvas, NodeMailer, and Cloudinary to implement API features for user authentication, data storage, password reset, and mailing. I also assisted the front-end team with the integration of API endpoints.

I am always looking for ways to improve my skills and stay up-to-date with new technologies. In particular, I am interested in further developing my expertise in API development and documentation, as well as exploring new areas such as machine learning and artificial intelligence.

I am a hard worker and I am always willing to go the extra mile. I am also a team player and I enjoy working with others to achieve common goals. I am confident that I can make a significant contribution to any team and help them achieve your goals.
