Experience
2025–
Pradini, Co-founder & CTO
Oct 2025 – now. Pradini began as a side project while I was at Findem. Chauffeur-driven car rental for Lagos & Abuja, where everything comes together. I lead one engineer and a crew of agents: agents build, a guard with no model checks, I sign.
2025–26
Findem, Staff Engineer
Nov 2025 – May 2026. Built two things. Warm-introduction paths: the strongest route to someone through people you already know, found almost instantly. And hiring with AI agents: agents that work out the ideal candidate, find and contact people, set up applications and grow lists.
2025
Getro acquired by Findem
November 2025. I stayed on through the acquisition to build what came next.
2022–25
Getro, Senior Engineer
Networks wanted job boards that read like their own. I built the live editor so they could change boards themselves, AI Matches and search in plain words, and kept the admin portal and design system consistent as they grew.
2022
Grain
A rewrite stuck for months because it was planned as one big switch. I made it a gradual move, one part at a time. It reached production in about a month and became the team’s playbook.
2020–22
PingPong, Co-founder & CTO
YC W21. Teams across time zones needed to talk without being online together. I built the first version of async video, voice and screen recordings on my own, then led a team of 5 shipping it on web, iOS, Android and desktop.
2018–20
Unbird, first engineer
A team still deploying by hand. I set up automated tests and deploys, so a release stopped being a manual job, and helped hire the early engineers. Techstars Boulder 2019.
2018
Tech team lead, Andela
6 developers, 4 client apps. I set the goals, cleared blockers, ran reviews and mentored each engineer, so the projects landed on time.
2017–18
InVision
Contract, remote, alongside Andela. A large app had to be split into smaller services without breaking it for its users. I built and looked after 9 of them in production, and took on-call shifts so incidents stayed short.
2017
Bootcamp facilitator and mentor
The bootcamp was the last stage of Andela’s application process. I took 30+ candidates through it, held the bar, and 90%+ were accepted. Also rewrote the OpenMRS Cohort Builder as a standalone app, and mentored on Codementor, 2017–20.
2016–18
Andela, Software Developer
In through freeCodeCamp and Andela’s bootcamp. Placed on client teams in stacks I hadn’t used before, I learned each one by building in it and shipped on schedule.
2013
Freelance web work
Design and code, self-taught, in Lagos.
