Hi, I'm Destiny Edet 👋

Full Stack Engineer · Backend & AI Systems · 5+ Years Building Production Software

👨‍💻 About Me

I'm a full stack engineer with over five years of experience, currently serving as chief engineer at a B2B AI SaaS company (remote), where I own the platform's architecture and delivery end to end.

My home base is the backend: Django, PostgreSQL, and the operational discipline of keeping real systems fast, tested, and reliable. But I ship the whole product when the product needs it, with Next.js and TypeScript on the front, cloud infrastructure underneath, and increasingly the AI layer in between: retrieval pipelines, knowledge graphs, and LLM integrations that have to work in production, not just in demos.

I'm also completing a Computer Science degree at the Air Force Institute of Technology, Kaduna, and currently deepening my security skills through hands-on cybersecurity training (Linux, ethical hacking, defensive tooling).


💼 What I Do

  • Architect and ship backend systems end to end: from schema design to deployed, tested, monitored services
  • Build AI-powered product features: retrieval pipelines, knowledge graphs, and LLM integrations that hold up in production
  • Own production: cloud infrastructure, migrations, billing systems, incident response, and heavy automated test coverage
  • Deliver across the stack: Django backends paired with Next.js/TypeScript frontends when the product needs it

🔭 Currently Building

An open-source security scanner for MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers, written in Rust: single static binary, CI-friendly, with tool-poisoning and rug-pull detection. Watch this space.

🧠 Engineering Approach

  • Plan before code: architecture and data models first; the fastest code to write is the code you don't rewrite
  • Own it end to end: from the first migration to the production incident at 2 AM
  • Test like it matters: heavy automated coverage is how a small team runs a whole platform
  • Write it down: systems deserve documentation a new engineer can actually follow
  • Security is a feature: going deeper via cybersecurity training and open-source security tooling
