Hi, I'm Gideon Iduma, a full-stack engineer based in Abuja, Nigeria, with 4+ years of professional experience building and scaling consumer web products. I work daily with React, Next.js, Node.js, PostgreSQL, and TypeScript, and I’ve led engineering efforts to design backend services, optimize client-side performance, and implement secure authentication and role-based access control. I’ve built teams and shipped features that balance speed with reliability, keep data secure, and delight users. As a founder and lead engineer at TicTask (and with stints leading teams at Hospital Plug Africa, Ukan 29, and Phoenix Med), I design modular architectures, containerize services with Docker Compose, and collaborate with testers and designers to improve usability and performance. I’m passionate about delivering scalable, maintainable systems and great UX using Material UI and Tailwind.
