Software & AI Engineer · Technical Lead · Lagos

I build the product.
And the systems
behind it.

I'm Praise Temiloluwa Olufemi. I build payment platforms, education products and AI tools, from the first brief to the interface, backend and engineering decisions that bring them together.

02 / Open source

Work that stands
up to review.

Selected merged pull requests, linked to the actual changes rather than the issue that requested them.

These are contributions to other teams' projects, not products I claim to have built alone.

03 / How I work

Hands on with the code.
Accountable for
the whole product.

My work spans fintech, education and AI. I move between product requirements, architecture, implementation and the teams behind them. The common thread is taking responsibility for how a system works, not just one screen or endpoint.

Engineering ownership
Data models, APIs, frontend and delivery.
Technical leadership
Architecture decisions, review and mentorship.
AI applied to real workflows
Agents and automation connected to business tools.
Interfaces people can follow
Clear structure without unnecessary complexity.
