My Career
Engineering, Innovation, and Growth.
I’m Nelson Akalia, a Computer Science graduate from Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Nigeria, and a passionate software engineer with a lifelong curiosity for building things that work—and scale.
I started coding at the age of 13, driven by a deep interest in how software can solve real-world problems. What began as curiosity quickly grew into a passion for innovation, system design, and creating tools that make life easier for individuals and businesses.
Today, I work as a Full-Stack Developer, Automation Engineer, and Project Manager, helping startups and teams design, build, and scale production-ready applications. I enjoy working across the entire stack—from frontend experiences to backend systems, databases, automations, and infrastructure.
Beyond coding, I bring structure and clarity to projects through formal project management training, ensuring that ideas move efficiently from concept to delivery. I value clean architecture, maintainable code, and systems built for long-term growth.
I’m constantly learning, experimenting, and improving—always focused on building solutions that are practical, scalable, and impactful.
