I build products, infrastructure, and the machinery required to know whether either is actually working.

When I joined, HelpBnk's mobile app was a WebView shell around the existing web product. I have been moving it toward React Native incrementally: first the shell and navigation, then selected surfaces including the home feed, search, notifications, deep-link handling, and media. Both runtimes still serve users, so each new surface needs a clear owner.

The difficult work lived in the seams: routing between web and native worlds, feed rows that stayed cheap under load, video moving between inline and fullscreen ownership, gesture interruption, startup, and enough instrumentation to distinguish a real improvement from a convincing demo.

I worked across Lenox Park's data and mobile systems. On the data side, I built and operated ETL pipelines processing more than ten million demographic records each month, along with scoring, benchmarking, survey ingestion, anonymisation, audit, and multi-tenant reporting infrastructure. On the product side, I was the sole mobile engineer for Roundtables on iOS and Android.

That combination was unusually valuable. I could follow a product question from the interface, through the API and scoring model, to the data lineage and operational evidence behind the answer. It made reliability a property of the whole system rather than a concern assigned to one layer.

I worked across the Risevest mobile app and the investment systems behind it. The product connected Nigerian users to dollar-denominated assets, so ordinary-looking flows carried foreign exchange, custody, compliance, and cross-border payout constraints. I helped ship the Naira Currency Vault and payout flows across five or more countries, alongside biometric access, MFA, secure storage, and native compliance checks.

The app served at least one million users. I introduced CodePush for controlled delivery, added Detox coverage around critical paths, and tightened native error handling as the reported crash rate moved from 1.8% to 0.4%. On the systems side, idempotent endpoints and queue-based retries made payout failures safer to recover from.

I co-developed Lykke Business Wallet and Bloom in a React Native and Expo monorepo, integrating shared native capabilities across iOS and Android. My work covered biometric authentication, automated testing, accessibility, a Storybook-backed design system, and the native modules beneath the shared interface.

I also worked on BBVA Trader CFD, where real-time market data, third-party trading SDKs, CI/CD, security, and rendering performance met in the same product. The useful engineering decisions were the ones that kept those concerns separate enough to change safely.

I co-founded Bridge and led engineering across its SME marketplace: backend APIs for vendor discovery, procurement, orders, and payments; the Bridge and Bridge Pro apps; and the companion web product. I defined the technical roadmap with my co-founders, managed AWS delivery and CI/CD, and mentored engineers across frontend and backend.

It was a parallel founder role, and it gave me direct responsibility for the distance between a business assumption and the system needed to test it. Transaction integrity, operational cost, delivery speed, and product scope were parts of the same decision.
