services

What I build for clients.

Backend and API development

Production services in Go or Node.js: tested, documented, and instrumented. APIs your frontend team and your customers can trust.

Typical engagement: 2 to 6 weeks

Payments integration

Paystack, LemonSqueezy, Stripe. Billing flows, webhook handling, retries, and reconciliation that survive real-world provider quirks.

Typical engagement: 1 to 4 weeks

Developer tooling and SDKs

CLIs, internal tools, and API clients that engineers actually enjoy using. Clear errors, sane defaults, real documentation.

Typical engagement: 2 to 5 weeks

Two ways to work with me.

Hiring for a backend or full-stack role?

I bring production Go, Java and JavaScript experience, system design skills, and a track record of shipping both alone and in a team.
