Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University, Bauchi
B.Eng. Civil Engineering
2016 – 20214.16 CGPA
Bachelor of Engineering in Civil Engineering with a strong quantitative foundation; transitioned into software engineering for full-stack product work.
Hello, I’m Ahmad, a Fullstack Engineer with 4 years of experience. I enjoy building robust, scalable products. My stack is React, Next.js, TypeScript, Node.js, Express, Postgres & TailwindCSS.
About me
After a degree in Civil Engineering, I moved into software engineering—the same discipline applied differently: clear requirements, solid structure, and reliable delivery. What I enjoy most is narrowing down ambiguous problems and shipping maintainable solutions. My core stack is React, Next.js, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS, shipping React/Next.js frontends and Node/Express/Postgres APIs end-to-end, with DevOps and AI-assisted workflows. Recent work includes Frontend Developer at DAXAP AS; I am also an Associate Software Engineer at T40 Technologies. I care about collaboration, code quality, and user-visible outcomes.

AI & dev workflow
How I use modern AI—models, assistants, and automation—to ship faster without sacrificing architecture, tests, or UX.
LLM integration
OpenAI · Gemini · production APIs
Shipping features with GPT-class and Gemini models: prompts, streaming, guardrails, and cost-aware usage.
AI-assisted development
Cursor · GitHub Copilot · Claude Code
Faster delivery and cleaner refactors using agentic editors, inline suggestions, and review-ready diffs.
Prompt & context design
Templates · evals · structured outputs
Repeatable prompt patterns, JSON/tool calling, and testing ideas before they hit users.
RAG & knowledge grounding
Embeddings · retrieval · citations
Grounding answers in your own data so apps stay accurate and easier to trust.
Workflow automation
CI hooks · codegen · internal tools
Using AI where it removes toil: scaffolding, docs, test ideas, and repeatable pipelines.
Product UX for AI
Loading · errors · transparency
Interfaces that set expectations, handle failures gracefully, and keep humans in the loop.
Production health
Monitoring & quality
Tools I rely on to catch regressions early and keep production observable, accountable, and shippable.
Sentry
Error & performance monitoring
Triage frontend and backend errors, track releases with source maps, and route alerts so regressions get caught early.
SonarQube
Code quality & static analysis
Gate pull requests on smells, vulnerabilities, and coverage to keep maintainability high across the codebase.
New Relic
APM & observability
Latency, throughput, traces, and dashboards to keep production health visible and on-call useful.
Delivery & coordination
Project management
How I plan, slice, and deliver work across distributed teams—from sprint boards to async docs.
Jira
Tickets · sprints · releases
Scrum and kanban boards, story breakdown, and release planning aligned with engineering workflows.
ClickUp
Tasks & docs
Roadmaps, task grooming, and async docs/SOPs that keep distributed teams moving without meetings.
Trello
Lightweight boards
Quick kanban for small teams and side projects when overhead needs to stay out of the way.
Experience
Frontend Developer
DAXAP AS
Full-time
Building production UIs with React and Next.js: reusable components from complex designs, performance work (lazy loading, efficient state), REST integrations, and close collaboration in agile delivery. Focus on cross-browser behavior and responsive layouts.
June 2025 – April 2026Associate Software Engineer
T40 Technologies
Full-time
Developing and maintaining scalable web apps with React and Next.js—translating UI/UX into high-quality components, optimizing load and runtime performance, integrating frontends with backend APIs, and hardening quality through debugging, testing, and cross-device checks.
January 2024 – June 2025Full Stack Engineer
Alpharithm Investments
Contract consultancy
Full-stack delivery with AI-powered services (Node.js, Python): responsive web/mobile interfaces with React and Next.js, scalable backends and REST APIs, PostgreSQL/MySQL/MongoDB schema design, cloud deployments, security-minded auth, and CI/CD with Docker and modern DevOps tooling.
March 2025 – April 2025Full Stack Developer
IAB CODES LTD
Contract
Next.js, TypeScript, and Node end-to-end: REST APIs wired to the frontend, JWT-based auth, performance tuning across devices, cloud deployments for scale, and agile collaboration with code reviews.
January 2025 – February 2025Frontend Developer
Dijix Global Solutions
Contract
React and Redux frontends: reusable components, performance and responsiveness, and tight collaboration with design and backend for production-ready features.
September 2024 – October 2024Freelance Fullstack Developer
Independent / Upwork
Freelance

August 2022 – PresentHR Intern
GAO Tek Inc. USA
Internship
Remote HR support: applicant comms, screening, scheduling interviews, job postings across career and campus channels, and partnership outreach with academic programs.
August 2022 – March 2023How I work
Built for distributed engineering teams. Remote-friendly, async-first, English-fluent, and focused on shipping reliable software with clear communication and measurable outcomes.
Remote-first & async
Clear writing · low-meeting culture
Comfortable across time zones with overlap windows for real-time work. I default to written specs, decisions, and updates so teams stay unblocked without waiting on calls.
Ownership & delivery
From spec to production
I take features from ambiguous brief to live release: clarifying requirements, shipping in small slices, and following through with monitoring and post-release fixes.
Code quality
Typed · tested · reviewed
Strong TypeScript, automated tests, and CI gates with SonarQube/ESLint. Pull requests with clear context, small diffs, and explicit trade-offs.
Collaboration
PR reviews · design syncs · pairing
I work closely with backend, design, and product. Constructive code reviews, shared ownership of outcomes, and pairing when a problem benefits from a second perspective.
Performance mindset
Web vitals · bundle hygiene · a11y
I measure before optimizing: Core Web Vitals, bundle analysis, and accessibility audits. Fast, inclusive interfaces are a feature, not an afterthought.
Continuous learning
AI-assisted workflows · RFCs · retros
I integrate AI tooling, write RFCs for non-trivial decisions, and run retros to compound improvements. The stack changes—how I learn it does not.
