Harisu Fanyui is a cloud-focused Lead Software Engineer with a decade of experience designing scalable, high-performance backend systems using Node.js, Go, and AWS. He has led migrations from DynamoDB to PostgreSQL, integrated complex third-party systems (Stripe, Dosespot, Netsuite, DocuSign) and improved onboarding conversion by ~45% through variant-based flows and non-ID photo verification. Comfortable shipping end-to-end solutions—from serverless blockchain deployments to robust payment platforms—he blends hands-on engineering with client-facing delivery. A former Udacity mentor and Google Summer of Code contributor, he also invests in growing junior engineers and improving developer workflows. Based in Buea, Cameroon, Harisu is pragmatic and experimental, favoring optimal, not single-solution approaches to distributed systems challenges.
