I'm Gideon, a Senior Full-Stack Engineer who builds things end to end, from polished React/TypeScript interfaces to the backend APIs and infrastructure that keep them running under pressure.
Over the past 5+ years I’ve worked across fintech, NGO tech, and product startups, with a consistent focus on systems that are fast, maintainable, and built to scale. At IRPay, I designed microservice architectures and payment infrastructure handling high throughput financial operations, cutting API latency by 3x and deployment cycles by 75%. At Citizens Common, I helped ship a civic accountability platform that reached 5,000+ weekly reports within weeks of launch.
Right now I’m leading engineering on a Canadian SaaS startup (Smooov.ca), a two-sided marketplace platform, where there’s no part of the product I don’t touch, from what users see on screen to the systems running behind it. I enjoy solving complex product problems, high technical ownership, and building with a focused team.
My core stack is React/TypeScript, Node, Laravel, with strong experience in Next.js, Django, PostgreSQL, Redis, Docker, Kafka, and Kubernetes. I care about clean architecture, developer experience, and shipping things that actually work.
