Led the technical founding and full commercial launch of a regulated digital investment platform, building and directing a cross-functional engineering, product, compliance, and operations team from zero to a live, revenue-generating business within 12 months. Platform engineering & scale: Owned end-to-end platform architecture and engineering delivery on AWS: scaling to 400,000 users at 99.95% availability. Established code standards, CI/CD pipelines, agile delivery practices, and system reliability frameworks across front-end (React Native / Expo), backend (RESTful APIs), and cloud layers. Product roadmap ownership: Defined and prioritised the full product roadmap from inception, translating market opportunities and regulatory requirements into engineering specifications, managing iterative sprint delivery, and reporting to board and investor stakeholders. Cross-border investment infrastructure: Led the implementation of DriveWealth, a US-regulated infrastructure provider enabling foreign portfolio investments for Nigerian retail customers, navigating cross-border regulatory and technical integration requirements across Nigerian SEC and US frameworks. Led development of agentic workflow automation, LLM-powered features, and intelligent decisioning capabilities. Delivered Nigeria's first investment education academy (10,000+ monthly active users) and a gamified Fantasy League investment product, shipped iteratively via agile sprints. Engineering team building & leadership: Recruited and built the engineering function from scratch, hiring across mobile (React Native), backend, cloud, and QA disciplines. Established a community of practice, structured code reviews, and a delivery culture that enabled the team to ship reliably at pace. Regulatory compliance: Translated Nigerian SEC obligations into engineering specifications and product acceptance criteria, ensuring the platform met regulatory requirements from day one without compromising delivery speed.
