David Quartey is a platform engineer specializing in video infrastructure, focused on optimizing delivery, cost, and reliability for African networks and emerging markets. With a decade of engineering experience across startups and client-facing roles, he builds low-latency, high-throughput systems and champions edge and local caching strategies to make video work where typical CDN assumptions fail. He’s led refactors and real-time services using Go, Node.js, and React, and has a track record of improving performance and predictability for video-heavy platforms. Based in Accra, he combines hands-on implementation with cross-continent collaboration, exchanging operational insights with networks, media, and edtech practitioners. Holding an MSc in Computer Science and with startup founding experience, he brings both product-minded engineering and practical constraints-aware design to infrastructure problems. Colleagues know him for pragmatic solutions tuned to African connectivity realities and an unexpected fondness for the R language.
