Hello, I'm

Oluwanifemi Latunde

Full-Stack Software Engineer

I'm a full-stack developer working across Go, Python, and JavaScript/TypeScript. Most recently I built backend infrastructure — card issuance, KYC, wallets — for a fintech company, and I build frontends in React and Next.js when a project needs both ends done well.

My Intro

About Me

I started out studying Food Technology, taught myself to code, and have spent the last three years shipping production systems across the stack — Go and Python (Django, FastAPI) on the backend, JavaScript/TypeScript with React and Next.js on the frontend.

I care about getting the unglamorous parts right: schema design, idempotency, error handling, audit trails — the things that don't show up in a demo but matter once something is handling real money or real users.

My Work

What I've Built

Most of what I've built recently lives inside private fintech and client codebases, so here's what I actually did rather than live demo links.
