  • Worked with the Web design team consisting of two Design Engineers, where we collaboratively designed & developed paystack.com/commerce, a landing page to drive the campaign for the launch of Paytack's commerce tools.

  • Worked with the Web design team, and a couple of backend engineers to design and build paystack.com/music, which is an interactive, and experimental project built using the Spotify and Slack APIs. Paystack Music is a site that shows the monthly mixtapes of all the music shared on Paystack's music channel on Slack.

2019 — 2020

  • Worked with a designer to build the company's marketing blog, using Nuxt and Contentful CMS — gomoney.global/blog.

  • I was involved in the redesign and led the development of the company's marketing website and other key marketing microsites used to drive launch campaigns for new product features.

  • Worked with a designer, backend engineer, and product manager, where I was involved in both the design and development of the internal dashboard, which was a tool mainly used by the Customer Success & Data team for analysis, transactions monitoring, and customer complaint checks and resolution.

2018 — 2019
Lagos, Nigeria
  • Built the gomoney payment link, which was a front-facing user application used by customers as a means to receive money from anyone via their unique links. The problem we solved with this, was to allow gomoney users to easily receive money from non-gomoney users via a unique payment link.
