Greetings, fellow coder! I'm Gloria, a seasoned backend developer with almost three years of diverse experience. My coding journey has taken me through a variety of frameworks and technologies, shaping me into a versatile developer.
I'm a backend developer with roots in Thailand and Nigeria, bringing a unique perspective to my work. I have a knack for creating web apps, bots & scripts that genuinely connect with real customers and users. My passion is crafting solid, reliable solutions that not only meet technical requirements but also elevate the user experience. Are you curious to explore some of my recent and noteworthy projects? You're in the right place! My expertise is in Node.js (Express), with a bit of C# on the side.
Bnkle is a cutting-edge platform designed to streamline project management for clients, consultants, contractors, and vendors across the globe, including in countries like the US, Nigeria, and more. It offers powerful tools that simplify every aspect of the construction processβthink bid management, quality control, and home-building with ease.
My role involved building API routes for the bnkle platform, API routes for authentication, CRUD(Create, Read Update, Delete) routes, and implementing access control, intrepreting UI/UX designs for better product understanding as well as engaging in pair programming with other backend and frontend developers.
Collaborated closely with product managers and front-end developers to develop and deploy serverless functions using Netlify for a food ordering system serving the Imo State, Owerri, Nigeria. I worked extensively with product managers to discuss and refine requirements, ensuring the solution met both business needs and user expectations. My role included integrating various components of the system, performing unit and integration testing to ensure reliability and performance, and troubleshooting any issues that arose during development. This project highlights my ability to work collaboratively, write cleaner code to enhance user experience.
This bot was made in Javascript, and is a open source personal project that I developed that enables people buy data bundles and fund their wallet in telegram to make data purchases, this chatbot was made as an alternative to the whatsapp Chatbot due to Meta's cost of their API usage. This chatbot showcases my expertise in Telegram API integration and MongoDB database utilization. Security is important, and I've integrated payment systems like Paystack to enable users have seamless transactions.
