About

I build digital products that solve real problems.

I'm a frontend-heavy full-stack developer who ships — React and TypeScript on the surface, Node, PostgreSQL and Supabase underneath. I've built products across fintech, e-commerce, SaaS and healthcare, and I care as much about the engineering holding together as the interface people see.

What I Do

Where I add the most value.

  • 01

    Frontend Engineering

    React, TypeScript, Next.js and modern frontend architecture built to last past the first release.

  • 02

    Product Development

    Taking products from idea to production — translating business problems into useful experiences, then shipping and iterating with real users.

  • 03

    Full-Stack Development

    Working across APIs, databases, authentication and the backend systems a product depends on.

Selected Work

A curated showcase of products, platforms and digital experiences I've helped bring to life.

Testimonials

What people say about working with me

Tobi is one of those developers who goes beyond simply writing code. He has a strong product mindset and genuinely cares about understanding the problem before thinking about the solution. Watching his growth as a developer has been impressive, particularly his ability to take ownership, learn quickly, and turn ideas into working products. He is dependable, curious, and always willing to take on challenges outside his comfort zone. I've enjoyed mentoring Tobi and working with him on Ajoti, and I'm confident he has the mindset and ability to build meaningful products and make a strong impact wherever he works.

Osho Ademola Joel

Co-Founder, Ajoti, Mentor

Working with Tobi has been a great experience. He is a proactive and resourceful developer who takes ownership of his work and consistently looks for ways to improve both the product and the development process. What stands out to me is his willingness to learn, ask the right questions, and take on complex tasks until he finds a solution. He is also a strong team player — easy to collaborate with, receptive to feedback, and committed to delivering quality work. Tobi is the kind of engineer you can trust to take a task from an idea to a working solution.

Frontend Team Lead, SBSC

Tobi is a thoughtful and dependable developer who brings a strong sense of ownership to his work. I've had the opportunity to work alongside him and have seen firsthand how seriously he approaches solving problems and delivering quality results. He is always willing to collaborate, share ideas, and learn when faced with something new. Beyond his technical skills, Tobi has a great attitude toward teamwork and is someone you can rely on when things need to get done. I would gladly recommend him to any team looking for a developer who is committed, adaptable, and focused on building useful products.

Philosophy

I don't build for the sake of shipping code. I build products that solve real problems, feel good to use, and can survive beyond the first release.
