Makeri, Jerry Isuwa

Software Engineer · Abuja, Nigeria

Backend engineer with 10 years of experience building APIs, databases, and server infrastructure. Go, JavaScript, and PHP are my primary languages. I also write TypeScript, Dart, Java, and Elixir depending on the project.

On the frontend I use React, Next.js, Vue, and Nuxt. For mobile, Flutter and React Native. I've shipped e-commerce platforms, payment gateways, government LMS systems, logistics tools, genealogy platforms, and cross-platform mobile apps — most from scratch, all in production.

I've worked across fintech, energy, government tech, e-commerce, logistics, and agricultural systems. Most projects are backend-heavy. I tend to work with small teams or directly with clients, remotely.

Get in touch if you have a project or want to work together.
