**Software Engineer · Tech Mentor · Technical Writer** — Nigeria · remote-first

> Architecting resilient systems and the tools that build them.

Hi, I'm **Aghogho Meyoron** — a software architect focused on high-integrity systems.

I bridge complex backend engineering and seamless user experience, specialising in **fintech infrastructure**, **AI-driven automation** and **developer tooling**. My work is defined by architectural rigour, automated testing and a relentless drive for system efficiency.

For seven years I've shipped software end to end: architecture, delivery, security and the maintenance nobody volunteers for. Most of it has run on platforms moving other people's money and data — gift cards, crypto, airtime, bill payments, virtual cards and wallets.

## How I work

- **Technical strategy** — I don't just solve tickets; I dismantle legacy bottlenecks, map technical debt and architect scalable migrations.
- **Open source advocacy** — author of eighteen Dart, npm and Go packages focused on developer experience.
- **Web engineering** — scalable, user-centric applications with clean, maintainable code.

Backend-heavy by preference, full-stack by habit, open-source by inclination. Off the clock: problem solver, gamer and swimmer.

> Open to senior engineering roles where the whole lifecycle matters. Let's work together!
