Who Am I?

Hey, I'm Femi Orokunle

I never thought I would become a full-stack developer, but here I am. I should have known that when I was learning to edit HTML on MySpace 15 years ago that I would end up here, but life is about surprises, right? After 7+ years of work experience, I've learned that combining my creativity with the ability to write clean, SOLID code is a very satisfying endeavor, and this is what I love to do.

In my free time, I love playing piano and Starcraft II.

Summary

Software development is about solving real problems with precision and skill. As a full-stack engineer, I tackle challenges head-on with practical, effective solutions.

On one hand, move fast and break things. On the other, pave the road ahead with patient deliberation.

Data governance. Real-time data management without buckling under scale. Multimillion dollar platform migrations. I've seen a lot, and failed a whole lot too. But on the other end of a loss is a lesson, as they say.

I hate listing my skills because I think it does injustice to the concept of software engineering as a mindset of tackling things you don't know, but here's what I bring to the table since you're here:

  • Typescript expertise in FE/BE, tooling, and architecture
  • Cloud proficiency in Azure and AWS
  • A vice-president of the We <3 Postgres fan club
  • Next.js specialist since version 9
  • C# and .NET artisan
  • Big-picture thinking
  • The best e-commerce dev of all time, according to rumors
  • System design savant
