About

Security-focused software engineering rooted in practical systems work.

I am a software engineer based in Accra, Ghana, working at the intersection of DevSecOps, software supply chain security, and open source ecosystem building. My work tends to start with systems: how code is built, verified, delivered, and trusted.

That interest shows up in ipxis, my self-hosted homelab for experimenting with Gitea, Woodpecker CI, Zot, Authentik, OpenBao, and Ollama, and in Phelsy, a marketplace product shaped by the realities of African commerce and platform operations.

Outside product work, I care deeply about community pathways. Through OSSAfrica and OpenSSF spaces, I contribute to conversations that help more developers across Africa engage with open source and modern software security practices.

Current Work

  • Building secure self-hosted delivery workflows on Debian with Podman and Woodpecker CI.
  • Developing Phelsy as a multi-vendor e-commerce platform for African markets.
  • Publishing bite-sized introductory computing content in C++ and Python.

Community

  • OSSAfrica community building and developer enablement.
  • OpenSSF SIG OSF Africa and BEAR Working Group participation.
  • Interest in mentoring and practical security education for early-career engineers.
