J.O

Frontend engineer and builder, shipping thoughtful products with code and infrastructure.

I am Janet, a Frontend Engineer based in Lagos with 5+ years of experience building high-performance web applications across fintech, e-commerce, and data-driven platforms. I single-handedly architected the frontend for a fintech platform serving 200,000+ users, and I care deeply about the craft of shipping reliable, scalable software.

Architecting and scaling a fintech platform serving 200K+ users

Sole frontend engineer across two major versions of Figur Africa, owning architecture, performance, and user experience end-to-end. Designed and implemented a dispute resolution system within the dashboard, handling complex transaction states, asynchronous workflows, and real-time updates.

Converted the platform into a Progressive Web App (PWA), improving load performance, offline access, and reliability for users on low-bandwidth networks. Led performance optimisation for v2, scaling from 50K to 200K+ users with 90%+ test coverage and WCAG-compliant interfaces.
