Hilary Okoro

I am a Backend Developer with over 8 years of experience designing and building scalable, secure, and high-performance applications across fintech, crypto, and enterprise environments. I have strong expertise in PHP (Laravel, Lumen), Node.js (NestJS, Express), TypeScript, Javascript and .NET Core, with solid experience in microservices architecture, RESTful APIs, and distributed systems. Throughout my career, I have worked extensively with MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, and cloud platforms such as AWS and GCP, deploying services using Docker and CI/CD pipelines. I have led backend teams, mentored junior engineers, implemented automated testing pipelines, and collaborated with cross-functional product and design teams to deliver reliable solutions in fast-paced remote environments.

I hold a Higher National Diploma (HND) in Computer Science from Delta State Polytechnic, Ozoro, where I built a strong foundation in software development, algorithms, and database systems. I also earned a Diploma in Web Application Development from CCT, Warri, which strengthened my practical skills in building dynamic web applications and backend systems. My education, combined with continuous hands-on experience, has equipped me with both theoretical knowledge and real-world engineering expertise.
