Personal site Issue 01
Hi, I’m
Noah.
I’m a backend engineer in Lagos. I build the services that move payments and messages, I write about life and software, and there’s usually a song playing.
Scroll for the work↓Field note / 001
Most of my work is the part nobody sees: making sure a payment goes through once, not twice, and that the service still answers at 2am.
When it works and nobody notices, I’ve done my job.
