Senior🎓
Top SchoolDavid Ajaba is a entrepreneurial software leader and builder with nine years of experience founding and scaling engineering teams across fintech and data platforms. As Co-Founder and CEO of Sedge and former Founding Engineer & Software Architect at Fusepay, he blends hands-on systems design, infrastructure optimization, and security-first practices to ship near-real-time, event-driven architectures and robust CI/CD pipelines. He has led infrastructure, OLAP/OLTP database strategy, and AML/security implementations while managing small, high-impact teams and authoring extensive technical documentation. Based in Lagos, Nigeria, David is driven by continuous learning and a Feynman-esque belief that building is the path to understanding, which shows in his penchant for creating internal management tools and data OS ambitions. Notably, he moved from engineering roles to leadership quickly—becoming a director of infrastructure early in his career—demonstrating both technical depth and entrepreneurial grit.
