I’m Samuel Onoja Taiwo, a software engineer in Lagos. I like building products, but I enjoy building the systems behind them even more.

My background started in full-stack development and evolved into backend and infrastructure work at Komodo across Rust, blockchain systems and protocols

Some things that escaped my Laptop:

• At Komodo, I built Rust and Go infrastructure for cross-chain DeFi: wallets, atomic swaps, WASM support for ARRR/Zcash, and WalletConnect v2 Rust implementations and integrations.
• At Khoomi, I built the backend platform for an e-commerce handmade marketplace from scratch in Go, designing the architecture and implementing core services
• At DDW, I built the full magazine website with WordPress, Next.js, TypeScript, memberships, gated content, and CMS-backed publishing.
• In open source, I improved REVM JumpTable lookup performance by 7.9x and added a Rust Clippy lint with bunch of other PRs.

I also build small systems projects, including an LC-3 virtual machine and paged-small-vec, because I like understanding how things work underneath.

I’m looking for work on backend systems, Rust, Go, WebAssembly, infrastructure, or Fullstack dev.
