About

Engineering quality
from first commit
to production.

I'm Samuel Onwuka — a full-stack software engineer with 4+ years shipping production web systems across marketplaces, dashboards, booking platforms, and real-time consumer apps.

My core stack is React, Vue, Next.js, and Nuxt.js on the frontend, with Node.js and Python on the backend. I care deeply about component architecture, UI performance, and the quality of the experience end users actually feel.

I think in systems. I write code that scales, document decisions that matter, and collaborate closely with design and product to ship work that moves the needle — not just work that ships.

01
Performance-first
Core Web Vitals, bundle budgets, and rendering strategies from the start.
02
Accessible by default
Every component keyboard-navigable and screen-reader ready.
03
Design fluency
Comfortable in Figma. Translates intent to pixel with precision.
04
Systems thinking
Reusable, documented component libraries that scale with the team.
