Paul Obike — Software Developer

I design and build software end to end: interfaces people enjoy using, and the backend systems that keep them fast and reliable.

I've shipped across telecom, fintech and payroll: React and Vue frontends, Flutter apps, Python, TypeScript and Go services, and the infrastructure that runs them.
