About

Hello,

I trust this message finds you in good health.

I am Seun, a seasoned software engineer with a proven track record in designing and implementing robust solutions, particularly within the fintech and legal tech domains.

I am enthusiastic about exploring potential opportunities to contribute to your engineering team.

Here are some highlights from my career:

1. Leading the implementation and experimentation of separating several components of the Quidax core backend into microservices. For context, the Quidax app is a cryptocurrency application that helps you buy and sell cryptocurrency as easily as sending a text.

In this role, I designed and implemented server-side web application logic in Javascript, Typescript, Ruby, and related frameworks like Node.js/Express.js/Nest.js, Ruby on Rails, RabbitMQ, Redis, and AWS, as well as collaborated with designers, front-end developers, and product managers to build scalable and robust web applications. I also monitor application performance and, continuously investigate and implement best practices.

2. Collaborated with other engineers in a team of 8 to build a crypto trading application with Nodejs/Typescript, Ruby on Rails, React Native, React, MySQL, and GraphQL that currently has over 1,000,000 users (and counting) and processes millions of dollars in transactions monthly.

3. Key engineer on a team that built a crypto payments app(Basqet) with Typescript/Nodejs/RabbitMQ, React, and MySQL, with close to 1,000+ merchants and hundreds of thousands of dollars in transactions processed monthly. I was responsible for building out the KYC system and expanding the settlement, transaction, webhook communication, authentication, admin, and other parts of the system.

4. Served as the Lead Backend Engineer and Engineering Lead on the new Look MVP Money Africa web application(Typescript/Nodejs/express, PostgreSQL, React).

5. Successfully migrated Nahmii meta service codebase from Javascript to Typescript with 90% test coverage.

I have some experience using Kotlin on the Backend and working with MongoDB.

Some of the products I have worked on and contributed to include:

My colleagues and managers have consistently praised me as a results-oriented professional who is efficient and sees work through while always looking out for colleagues. Overall, in every aspect of my software engineer role at Quidax, Basqet, Nahmii, Money Africa, Andela, ASB Technologies, and BookingsAfrica (http://bookingsafrica.com/), I have consistently demonstrated analytical, critical thinking, and creative thinking abilities, and I invite you to review my detailed achievements in the attached resume.

I would love the opportunity to contribute my skills and experiences to the growth of the team and the product being built.

 

Looking forward to the possibility of working together.

Sincerely,

Seun Somefun.
