    2023 to Present

    Remote, Lagos & Abuja, Nigeria

    End-to-end ownership of requirements, delivery coordination and sprint execution for enterprise SaaS platforms across fintech, HR-tech and food-tech.

    • Led a remote cross-functional delivery team of 12 to 18 across engineering, QA, design and stakeholders.
    • Stabilised the EkoFresh food platform mid-execution, reducing average feature delivery cycle from three weeks to two (about 30% faster).

    • Directed AI tools, as prompt designer and reviewer, to transcribe stakeholder interviews, summarise user needs and draft first-pass gap analyses and user stories, with every output validated and refined before use.
    • Delivered requirements and delivery coordination for Pre-Check, an API-enabled pre-employment verification platform.
    • Maintained full traceability from business objectives through user stories, test cases, and release outcomes, improving sprint predictability and reducing carry-over work by eliminating ambiguity at the definition stage.
    • Redesigned delivery reporting dashboards, cutting manual data preparation time by 25% and improving executive visibility, and tracked stakeholder account continuity using HubSpot CRM.
    • Used SharePoint for secure document transfer and monitoring on a client engagement requiring controlled file governance.
    • Authored Business Requirements Documents (BRDs), functional specifications, user stories, sprint reports, risk logs, user manual and retrospective summaries, maintaining a complete and auditable delivery record throughout each engagement.

    What this taught me: Revalidating requirements early, before they reach a sprint, prevents most of the rework that later erodes stakeholder confidence.
