Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolTolu Idowu is a Senior Software Engineer based in Raleigh, NC with nine years of technical experience and over seven years focused on Node.js and full‑stack web development. At Red Hat he led a migration from a Java e-commerce platform to Node.js, cutting routes and halving latency on key endpoints while also building GitLab CI/CD pipelines and managing Kubernetes deployments. He pairs front‑end proficiency (React, Angular, web components) with backend skills (Node, Go, Java) and a track record of shipping business‑critical features like a DMP system that supported a major product launch. Tolu brings a scientific rigor from an earlier chemistry research background, applying experimental thinking to performance tuning and validation automation. He is pragmatic about developer experience—introducing consistent linting, Prettier, and CI checks to improve code quality across teams. Motivated by ambitious goals (his GitHub quote hints at that), he blends hands‑on engineering with small‑team leadership and cross‑functional collaboration.
