Hi, I’m Samson 👋#
⚡ Fueled by motivation, obsessed with perfection - I innovate the present by providing a glimpse of things to come.
💼 What I Do#
I specialize in backend engineering, site reliability, and infrastructure optimization. My track record includes:
- 📈 Scaling systems to handle millions of concurrent users during peak gaming events
- 🤖 Building automation that reduces manual work and increases team productivity
🎯 Core Principles#
💡 Innovation First
Question existing implementations. If something can be better, make it better. Don’t settle for “good enough.”
✨ Obsess Over Details
Optimization isn’t just about performance metrics - it’s about creating seamless experiences that users don’t have to think about.
❤️ Build for Impact
Technology should serve people. Every system I build, every line of code I write, aims to make someone’s work easier or their experience better.
🛡️ Security by Design
OSCP certified. Security isn’t an afterthought - it’s foundational to everything I build.
