Summary
Enigbe Ochekliye is a software engineer with nine years of engineering experience who blends a strong mechanical and aerospace background with production-grade software development, primarily in Python and Rust. Currently contributing to Lightning Development Kit work at Btrust, he has built asynchronous data pipelines and CLIs for real-time financial tooling (stablesats) and worked on bitcoin utility libraries during multiple stints at Chaincode Labs and Galoy. His early career in heavy industry and maintenance engineering gave him hands-on expertise in CAD, IoT, and automated manufacturing workflows, which he now applies to infrastructure, testing, and serverless systems. Based in Nigeria, he brings a pragmatic systems mindset—comfortable moving from low-level mechanical design to distributed tracing and async Rust—and a track record of open-source collaboration across payments and crypto tooling.
