Lagos State, Nigeria
Summary
👤
SeniorDare Olufunmilayo is a founder and engineering leader with nine years of experience building cloud-native, MLOps and DevOps platforms across the UK public sector and financial services before returning to Africa to tackle skills and employability at scale. He founded Darey.io and Xterns.ai to deliver AI-enabled learning pathways, project-based assessments and a Dynamic CV that replaces paper credentials with proof-of-skill, and has helped power national programmes such as Nigeria’s 3MTT. Technically certified (CKA, AWS Professional certs) and hands-on in backend, infrastructure and deployment, he has implemented Kubernetes, Terraform, CI/CD and service-mesh solutions in high-compliance environments. Unusually for a founder, he still contributes to code and infra (example: tooling repo updates to DB and deployment configs), marrying operational rigor with product-led talent design. Based in London, he now focuses on partnerships with governments, corporates and NGOs to build the career infrastructure Africa deserves.
