The problem
Customer and operations dashboards with backend services for parcel lifecycles, tracking events and notifications, built for high-throughput transactional workflows.
Small teams stitch together disconnected tools for websites, customer communication, content, analytics and operations, while generic AI assistants lack safe access to business context and actions.
Centralised the customer journey and operational data, reduced manual hand-offs and set up a documented AWS foundation.

Led architecture and hands-on engineering for an online booking platform: Python APIs and the AWS deployment architecture, integrated with Paystack, Sage Accounting, Zoho Bigin and Zoho SalesIQ.
