Experience

What I've built, and the teams I've led.

Software engineering leads the way; leadership underpins it. Both are why I take end-to-end ownership of what I ship.

Software Engineering

  1. Freelance Software Developer, Flayona (Client Project)

    2025 – Present

    Flayona

    • Integrated Paystack card and Mobile Money payments using HMAC-SHA512 webhook verification, idempotent processing and race-safe transaction reconciliation.
    • Engineered four secure authentication domains (customers, distributors, administrators and Credit Officers) with TOTP two-factor authentication, account lockout, passwordless OTP and role-based access control.
    • Implemented secure handling of Ghana Cards, payslips, selfies and KYC information using private storage and ownership-checked, authenticated access.

  2. Full-Stack Developer, OpFix (Final Year Project)

    2026

    OpFix

    Designed and deployed a secure, enterprise-style cloud-based maintenance management platform as my BSc final-year project: six organisational roles, end-to-end maintenance workflows, and a FastAPI + PostgreSQL backend behind a React SPA. Now being prepared for future commercialisation.

    • Modelled relational data structures for organisations, users, maintenance jobs, quotes, approvals, attachments and audit history.
    • Implemented role-based access control, access-level administration, audit logging, and soft deletion with restoration.
    • Built workflows for immediate (three-hour), 48-hour and one-week approval-based maintenance categories, with responsive dashboards and reporting.
    • Evaluated the platform across role-specific accounts and improved accessibility to a self-assessed ~97–99 Lighthouse score through iterative testing and remediation.
