WALE BASHIR

Remote

• Designed and shipped CKB Transaction Firewall, an on-chain outgoing payment filter that enforces a blacklist at consensus through a RISC-V lock script.
• Deployed to CKB testnet and published TypeScript and Rust SDKs to npm and crates.io with typed interfaces, structured errors, and integration examples.
• Implemented on-chain governance for the blacklist: 72-hour review window, 3/5 multisig voting, and a CLI covering the full propose → anchor → vote → execute lifecycle.
• Built Fiber Atlas, a network-visibility and on-chain reliability tool for the Fiber Network, deriving topology, liquidity, and channel health from gossip data, with a Faultline feed that attributes on-chain force-closes to specific nodes.
• Built CKB MCP, a Rust workspace of three MCP servers enabling AI-assisted CKB development across chain RPC querying, documentation access, and contract build/deploy tooling.
• Designed CKB Agent Control Hub, an on-chain authorization protocol modeling agent identity as CKB cells, configuration as Spore cells, and permissions as type scripts.

• Architected VTE (vte.com.ng), a QR-based attendance and access-management platform for KWASU on a high-concurrency Go backend and Next.js 16 / React 19 PWA, handling burst traffic when hundreds of students scan simultaneously.
• Designed VTE's time-, level-, and capacity-bound QR token system (server-side time windows, level-locked codes, hard capacity limits), functioning as a short-lived scoped credential per session.
• Implemented a multi-layer fraud-prevention pipeline in Go covering velocity checks, IP-pattern analysis, duplicate prevention, physical-digital reconciliation, and anomaly alerting.
• Delivered payment-gated access via the Remita RRN API, enforcing verified-payment invariants behind JWT auth, RBAC, TLS-only APIs on an Nginx reverse proxy, OWASP-aligned validation, and full audit logging.

US (Remote)

• Owned the backend and Telegram surface for a US-based professional networking product: Bun/Hono API, PostgreSQL with Drizzle, Redis, BullMQ, JWT auth, and OpenAPI documentation.
• Shipped a hybrid Telegram bot and Mini App plus SvelteKit webapp, with AI-powered natural-language search and scheduling (Vercel AI SDK) and one-tap bot-to-webapp handoff for profile and connection management.
• Worked directly with the US founding team on requirements and delivery across time zones.

Nigeria · Part-time

• Lead engineering for a fill-to-earn survey platform on SvelteKit, TypeScript, PostgreSQL, and Prisma: participants complete surveys through a Telegram bot and receive instant Paystack payouts while researchers get real-time analytics and authoring tools.
• Designed a workspace-based multi-tenant model with JWT session auth, role-based access, and audit logs, allowing agencies and brands to run multiple campaigns from a single account.
• Built Redis- and BullMQ-backed background workers for email delivery, reward processing, and long-running data exports.
• Wrote an 87-test Vitest suite (unit, integration, route handlers) from scratch, uncovering and fixing a critical session-token logging bug in the auth service.

Remote · Contract

• Built the summit platform on SvelteKit, TailwindCSS, and Hono, covering event schedule, speaker profiles, and registration flows for a global audience.
• Developed the registration and attendee-management system, and kept the site deployed and stable through the summit run.

Nigeria

• Led end-to-end development of a campus-focused e-commerce platform positioned against incumbents like Jumia and Konga, built on Next.js/React, Node.js, and PostgreSQL.
• Worked with founders on requirements, translating business goals into user flows and iterating on UI/UX, pricing, and promotions.
• Implemented authentication, vendor-vs-student role-based access, and baseline observability.

Nigeria

• Founded and scaled a community-driven remote job platform to 25,000+ monthly active users and 120,000+ community members with $0 marketing spend and a ~$7/month infrastructure budget.
• Architected high-availability Node.js and Bun/Hono APIs over PostgreSQL and Redis using strategic caching, composite indexing, and background queues (<200ms p95 latency, 99.9% uptime).
• Built offline-first SvelteKit/Next.js frontends with Service Workers and IndexedDB, improving retention ~40% in low-bandwidth regions and achieving <3s loads on 3G for the 40% of users on constrained connections.
• Designed a 3-stage job verification pipeline using regex heuristics, LLM fine-print analysis, and community flagging, screening 1,000+ listings daily and cutting fraudulent posts ~90%.
• Sole engineer on the product: owned infrastructure, data model, cost management, abuse policy, and release cadence.

• Delivered responsive web applications for clients across multiple projects, owning scope, delivery, and client communication end-to-end.
• Improved UX and performance through modern frontend patterns and optimized backend APIs, consistently shipping on schedule against business goals.
