About me

I’m Tobi Makinde, a Software Engineer and Technical Partner. I help startup founders, growing businesses and digital agencies, especially teams in the US, UK, Canada and Australia, turn business problems into practical software.

  • Web applications, backend systems and mobile apps
  • Automation and integrations that improve how work gets done
  • AI features guided by a clear business need
  • A behind-the-scenes technical partner for agencies

I start by understanding the problem and the outcome you want, then find the simplest solution that creates real value.

Need a technical partner? Let’s talk.

Tell me what’s broken or what you want to build. I’ll reply with a scoped plan and a fixed quote.
