Hi, I'm

Gabriel A. Idenyi

I love building software that works — and teaching others how to do the same.
About Me

I’m a Fullstack Software Engineer with over 5 years of hands-on experience building scalable, high-impact web applications across edtech, fintech, and other industries. I specialize in Python, and JavaScript — crafting everything from backend APIs and complex data models to seamless user experiences.

I currently work at Uobis, where I’ve led major projects like rebuilding a full Learning Management System from WordPress to Django, integrating tools like WebWork and LTI 1.2, implementing Zoom SSO, payment systems, gradebooks, and more — powering learning for thousands of users. I've also built platforms for POS/Agency banking, collections and notifications, news aggregation, inventory management, and quizzing.

I’m passionate about writing clean, maintainable code, mentoring engineers (I've guided 5+ developers so far), and solving real-world problems with thoughtful architecture and well-tested systems. On the side, I’ve freelanced on Upwork, completed successful client projects, and earned a spot in the Toptal Network (top 3% of global talent).

Outside of web development, I have roots in embedded systems — building IoT projects with Arduino, mbed, and C/C++ during my early engineering days.

I love building things that matter, learning continuously, and collaborating with smart people. Let’s create something great.
