Since then, I’ve spent the last 4 years working as a Full Stack Engineer across Web2 and Web3 environments. My experience spans healthcare, education, and blockchain platforms. At Headbridge, I built and scaled a multi-module backend handling real-time chat, marketplace listings, and payment workflows. I’ve also worked on AI-driven systems, including a RAG-based recommendation engine for student placement, and developed smart contracts for production-grade blockchain applications winning hackathons like Chainlink and Blockgames in the process. Across roles, I’ve focused on performance, system design, and reliability; optimizing databases, improving API efficiency, and building responsive frontends with React and React Native. I’ve also worked with cloud infrastructure (AWS, Docker, Kubernetes) and implemented secure, scalable architectures. Looking ahead, I want to deepen my expertise in building high-performance, distributed systems and contribute to products that operate at scale. I’m particularly interested in working on platforms that combine strong engineering with real user impact. ### Ideal Volunteer Opportunity My ideal volunteer opportunity is one where I can contribute meaningfully to a real product while continuing to grow as an engineer. I’m particularly drawn to early-stage or mission-driven teams where there’s room to take ownership, move quickly, and solve practical problems that impact users. At this stage, I’m also intentional about staying sharp; continuously building, shipping, and improving systems. So I value opportunities where I can work on production-level features, collaborate with other engineers, and be part of an active development cycle. Equally important, I see volunteering as a way to build strong professional relationships. I’m looking to connect with experienced builders, contribute reliably, and earn trust through my work ideally leading to long-term collaboration, referrals, or future opportunities. Overall, I’m looking for a role where I can add real value, keep improving technically, and grow within a team that is building something meaningful. ## Education **Federal University Of Technology Owerri** Petroleum Engineering 2013 Oct - 2018 Nov ## Experience ### Fullstack Developer **Headbridge** 2023 Nov - 2024 Mar - Architected and built a complex multi-module API managing users, quotations, real-time chat, marketplace listings, order tracking, and payment workflows. - Optimized MongoDB queries and indexing strategies, improving data retrieval performance by 25%. - Migrated React Native application from asynchronous bridge to JSI architecture, significantly improving runtime performance and ensuring stronger type safety. - Built responsive mobile application (Expo + Reanimated) with seamless backward compatibility up to Android 10 and iOS 13, increasing device support coverage. - Designed scalable API structures supporting high-volume transactional workflows. - Implemented comprehensive endpoint testing, improving system reliability and reducing regression issues. ### Frontend Developer **Onehealth NG** 2024 Mar - 2024 Apr - Redesigned and modernized core landing pages, improving UX clarity and increasing page load performance by 30% through optimized asset delivery and efficient rendering strategies. - Built a real-time HMO operations dashboard for tracking orders, fulfillment status, and service activity. - Implemented optimized data-fetching strategies (lazy loading, memoization, and API batching) to reduce redundant requests and improve dashboard responsiveness. - Improved UI consistency and component reusability, accelerating feature iteration speed across the frontend system. - Collaborated with backend engineers to ensure reliable real-time data updates and smooth state synchronization. ### Fullstack Developer **Sabi Scholar** 2024 Apr - 2024 May - Designed and implemented a RAG-based AI recommendation system to match students with higher institutions based on academic performance and preferences. - Engineered prompt optimization pipelines that improved response clarity and reduced ambiguity by over 30%. - Built secure backend guards with input validation and role-based authorization controls. - Developed responsive AI chatbot interface integrating real-time RAG outputs. - Improved structured result formatting and consistency for decision-support accuracy. ### Frontend Developer **Sqoolify** 2025 Nov - 2026 Jan - Designed and implemented a comprehensive staff dashboard tracking student attendance, performance metrics, class timetables, and announcements. - Built automated result compilation and performance analytics system, improving reporting efficiency by 40%. - Integrated facial recognition attendance system using Google MediaPipe, reducing manual attendance entry errors significantly. - Engineered performance dashboards with real-time analytics visualization. ### Smartcontract & Backend Developer **Chainlink Hackathon** 2023 Nov - 2023 Dec **1st Place — Chainlink Perlot Challenge** - Architected and developed the platform smart contract enabling users to mint, buy, sell, and stake NFTs representing digital advertisements. - Integrated Chainlink Oracles to fetch and process real-world engagement data for dynamic NFT valuation adjustments. - Implemented Chainlink CCIP to support cross-chain staking, advertisement propagation, and reward distribution. - Designed staking and reward distribution mechanisms tied to NFT performance metrics. - Engineered dynamic value adjustment logic to reflect engagement data and incentive participation. - Optimized contract storage layout and execution flows to significantly reduce gas consumption. - Achieved high test coverage to ensure predictable contract behavior and security guarantees. - Built backend services integrating GenAI image generation and IPFS uploads for NFT advertisement thumbnails. ## Achievements - Winner Block games Hackathon (2022) - Chainlink Hackathon Winner (Perlot Challenge) (2023) ## Additional Information **Website:** [santacodes.vercel.app](https://santacodes.vercel.app) **Language:** English (Fluent) ## Contact **Email:** **Phone:** **LinkedIn:** [Amanze Anyanwu](https://www.linkedin.com/in/amanzearthur) **Twitter:** [@amanzearthur](https://twitter.com/amanzearthur)
