Abstract.

My foundation is Python, SQL, and Linux, extended into backend services, AI integrations, and financial data work. I am completing a B.Sc. in Mathematics at the University of Lagos while working as Technical Lead at LunixDV, coordinating a small team that builds software and AI products. I am looking for roles in risk and energy analytics, middle-office or financial operations, and AI application engineering.
