Hello, I'm KAS

Kolawole Abdullah Solahudeen

I am a Software Engineer with over 6 years of experience building web applications. These days I work across the stack on fintech products, from Telegram Mini Apps and KYC flows to the APIs behind them, and I have mentored the next generation of frontend developers. My core tools are TypeScript, React, Next.js, Astro and Node.js.

I can be relied on to use critical thinking to solve complex projects. During my free hours, I indulge in manga, anime, music, or geeking about emerging tech.

Let's work together to bring your vision to life! I am available for both contract and full-time remote positions.
