Summary
👤
SeniorFranklin Ikenna is a Backend Engineer based in Lagos with 8 years of hands-on experience building and scaling web and mobile applications using Go, Node, React, and React Native. He blends backend systems design (REST, GraphQL, gRPC) with front-end intuition, having shipped subscription and licensing systems, e-learning platforms, and complex UI builders. At OneRoute he improved throughput and reduced DB load by moving heavy work to worker threads, caching, and simplifying queries, and he designed round-robin/sequential service algorithms to optimize provider routing. Comfortable across databases (Mongo, Postgres, Oracle/MySQL) and application modernization, he routinely eliminates uncaught promises and unnecessary joins to boost reliability and performance. Franklin’s career spans product-focused teams and client-facing roles where he pairs engineering rigor with pragmatic UX sensibilities. He’s a pragmatic problem solver who favors algorithmic fixes and measurable performance gains over premature optimization.
