01About // background

About me

Sodiq Olatunde, software engineer — sodiq.olatunde · lagos, ng

An Engineer
and Founder.

I didn't take the usual route. My degree is in Human Kinetics — sports science, not computer science. I taught myself to code, broke into engineering in Lagos, and worked my way up to leading a team and mentoring 15+ engineers before going remote for scale-ups in Berlin and Helsinki. Today I build payment and data systems for Europe, and my own products from Nigeria.

The indigo, ochre and repeating geometry here are drawn from adire — the Yoruba resist-dyed cloth of south-west Nigeria. A quiet nod to where I build from.
