I started with software engineering because I love turning ideas into reliable products—from clean APIs to secure backend flows.

• 💡 What I’m passionate about: Building developer-friendly backends and practical Web3 integrations that solve real problems.
• 🌱 Currently learning: Systems design, production-grade Django, and smart contracts with Solidity.
• 🎯 My vision: To build scalable, user-centered platforms for emerging markets, where reliability and affordability matter most.
• 🧪 Projects I want to work on: Subscription/payments platforms, edtech ecosystems, dashboards & analytics, and Web3-enabled features (NFT certs, wallets, on-chain verification).

OWLPHA University is a Web3-powered edtech platform I’m building to become the Coursera of blockchain and emerging tech.

It’s designed as a complete learning ecosystem with:

• 📚 Courses → Modules → Lessons structure with video, quizzes & progress tracking
• 🧾 NFT certification system powered by Ethereum & IPFS
• 💬 Community features: group channels, insights, video/voice conferencing
• 🎮 Gamification: XP points, badges, ranks, and leaderboards
• 🔒 Scalable backend with Django + Postgres + Celery + Redis
• 🌐 Global-first approach: accessible, reliable, and long-term scalable

👉 My goal with OWLPHA is to redefine Web3 education, combining trustless certification with an engaging community-driven learning platform.

• 🧰 Tech Stack:
  Python · Django · DRF · PostgreSQL · Celery · Redis · Docker · TailwindCSS
Solidity · Web3.py · Git/GitHub · CI/CD · Unit Testing (pytest)

• 🏗️ What I’m building right now:

  • OWLPHA University (Web3 learning platform with NFT certificates, payments & gamification)
  • A Future of Work subscription platform (multi-gateway payments: Helio/Web3, Remita, Opay)
  • Mailer (Email & WhatsApp Marketing Platform) — End-to-end marketing automation with bulk messaging, campaign analytics, and user segmentation.
  • Web3-enabled integrations for trustless verification and credentialing

• Backend: Django, DRF, Auth, REST, Caching, Task Queues (Celery), Testing (pytest)
• Databases: PostgreSQL, SQLite (dev), migrations & data integrity
• DevOps: Docker, GitHub Actions (basic CI), logging/monitoring basics
• Web3: Solidity, EVM basics, wallet flows, NFT certs
• Frontend (supporting): HTML, CSS, TailwindCSS, Vanilla JS

I’m open to backend roles, Web3 integrations, and edtech/fintech projects. If you’re building something meaningful, let’s talk.

• Start simple, then scale with tests & metrics.
• Prefer explicit, well-documented APIs.
• Design for resilience: idempotency, retries, and graceful failure paths.
• Leave every codebase cleaner than I found it.
