Data & Software Engineer • Builder of reliable data platforms • Fitness enthusiast
I design and ship systems that make data dependable: pipelines that don’t flake, services that scale, and automation that shortens the distance between idea and impact. I value clarity, performance, and craft.
From Accra, Ghana → Glasgow, Scotland → USA. From small scripts to scalable platforms. Here’s the path and the principles.
I started as a curious builder who loved turning messy problems into neat systems. Over the last 4–5 years I’ve worked across data engineering and software development: designing ingestion frameworks, optimizing Spark jobs, hardening CI/CD, and getting features safely to production.
I’ve learned to value boring reliability over flashy quick fixes. I write code that’s easy to read, observable, and resilient, and I obsess over the last mile: monitoring, alerts, and documentation people actually use.
Outside work, I train. Running, lifting, and chasing that clean, sharp form. Fitness taught me the same things engineering did: progressive overload, feedback loops, and the truth that consistency beats motivation.
I run, lift, and train at least days a week. At my best, I pair morning cardio with evening weights. The goal is not just aesthetics; it is discipline. The same consistency that builds muscle builds systems: plan, execute, measure, iterate.
Owned parts of the data platform, improved reliability and delivery speed with Scala/Spark, CI/CD, and strong observability.
Built ingestion frameworks, standardized configs, tuned pipelines, and mentored engineers. Hands-on across AWS, Python/Scala, and infra.
BSc Computer Science (2014-2018) and MSc Big Data Technologies (2019-2020) provided the formal grounding for practical systems thinking.
I’m doubling down on building production‑ready apps and reusable building blocks, the kind of small tools and frameworks that teams can drop into real systems to get value fast. I’m also partnering with businesses (startups and SMEs) to modernize their data platforms and internal tools. I’m open for consulting project‑based or retained advisory.
