Hey, I’m Funṣó, (Daniel for the tonically challenged 😄), I'm a Software Engineering Lead at Dayforce, Previously, I was a founding engineer at Tingtel, where I later served as Engineering Manager and eventually Head of Engineering. Before that, I worked as a Senior Software Engineer => Software Engineering Manager at Wallets Africa (YC W19). I enjoy building and scaling engineering teams, designing reliable systems, and taking products from early ideas to production at scale.
I've chased my way down the software stack from early work with PHP/MySQL and J2ME on S40/S60 devices, through Android development in the Jelly Bean and KitKat era, to full-stack engineering with Java Spring and frontend frameworks like Backbone and jQuery. Along the way, I’ve worked with SQL, BI, and AML systems on SAS. done custom integrations and migrations on ERPS like IFS, SAP, Navision .
Today, I focus on backend and platform engineering, primarily using C# and Java on Azure and AWS, designing and operating scalable systems. I’m comfortable working across languages and platforms when the problem demands it.
TinyBlobXCIII is my independent publication where I share notes, thoughts, learnings, and ideas as I try to make sense of the world. You can find more about my background in my publicly available resume here. If you'd like to get in touch, email me at funsoakinokun@gmail.com.
New here and not sure where to start? Check out my weekly roundup of tweets that cracked me up and laugh along.
