I'm a chef who cooks, but not in the kitchen. I solve problems for a living using 1s and 0s.
I write software for a living, for fun, and lately mostly for myself. Six years in, self-taught. Backend first, frontend because the backend needs a face, DevOps because nobody else was going to do it. I run a small company out of Lagos called Brivon Core and ship products under it. Most are small. A few make money. All of them are actually live, which turns out to be the hard part.
My GitHub bio says "I dont know what i'm doing." Still true, and I have made peace with it.

open to founding engineer roles, contract work, anything that ships
| Product | What it actually does | Status | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 🧠 | ScribeAI | An AI co-founder for market research, competitor analysis and startup validation. Ships its own MCP server, so your research context follows you into whatever AI tool you already use. | live paying |
| 📖 | Elorah | A Bible companion app. Verse-level read-along audio and a Council feature that lets you talk with biblical figures, grounded in real verse lookups instead of vibes. | waitlist |
| 📍 | Cue | Location-based dating built around one mechanic, the approach request. A deliberate signal to meet in person instead of texting into the void. | live |
| 🖼️ | RenderOG | Dynamic OpenGraph images as a service. Point it at a template, get a share card back, no headless browser to babysit. | live |
| 🪙 | Savi | Duolingo for saving money. Streaks, accountability partners, freeze tokens. It never holds your cash, it just refuses to let you forget. | waitlist |
| 🎙️ | TonePrint | Voice fingerprinting. It learns how a specific person actually writes and talks, so generated copy stops sounding like a press release. Credit-based, no subscription. | in dev |
🥉 nexusaiAI phone agent that screens scam calls and handles inbound sales.
3rd out of 3,000 in Google's Gemini API Developer Competition.
|
🧷 urmindDump anything you browse, never think about organising it again. Semantic search across links, PDFs and audio.
|
🧰 modelkitType-safe model config for apps that already call AI APIs. Swap which model a feature runs on in production without a redeploy, Redis-backed, with a Studio UI to manage overrides. I run it across most of my builds.
|
A simple, type-safe task queue built on BullMQ. Define a job once, get typed producers and workers, stop hand-rolling the same queue setup on every project.
|
⚾ clutchBaseball, re-imagined. Built for the Google Cloud x MLB hackathon.

Half of them are experiments, a few are load-bearing. queueflow, prospark, 4snap, nocred, seedz and the rest live in here. Browse everything → |
Where I have worked
| Company | Role | What I actually did |
|---|---|---|
| Waymaker | Founding engineer | Built Custo, a UX analytics product sitting on top of PostHog session replay. Also the widget SDK that let PMs push in-app nudges without shipping an app update. |
| Waymaker | Founding engineer | Built Bounta, a two-sided cashback marketplace. Stripe pre-auth, Mangopay escrow, Trigger.dev orchestration, WebView-based cart extraction. |
| Bizconnect24 | Software engineer | Full-stack product work. |
| Paycode Inc. | Software engineer | Payments infrastructure. |
| Hotels.ng | Intern, then engineer | Where a lot of this started. |

Frontend and mobile
Backend and data
Infra and the rest
The graveyard, and what each one taught me
Shipping a lot means killing a lot. These are dead or shelved on purpose. I would rather show them than pretend the wins came for free.
| Project | What it was | Why it stopped |
|---|---|---|
| Ascend | Cultivation-themed life progression app, 12-rank system borrowed from xianxia. | 753 commits in and I killed it before launch. The post-mortem is in the repo, along with the pieces I salvaged: rank SDK, narration engine, bottom sheet primitive. |
| Traxio | A living OS for marketing goals that writes the actual drafts instead of another plan. | Validated against real demand signals, then parked. |
| baaymax | Generate a portfolio straight from your GitHub profile. Still my most-starred repo. | Served its purpose. Left where it is. |
I am usually building something. If you want to build it with me, or you have a hard problem that needs someone who will not stop until it works, I am reachable.
Ask me about TypeScript, React Native, Hono, Drizzle, Go, or why your Postgres query is slow.
Still don't know what i'm doing. Still shipping.
