You know what you want to build
You have the idea, the problem, or the product direction. I help turn it into a practical build plan, make the right technical decisions, and ship the software while you focus on customers, sales, and growth.
Independent product engineer — available for new projects
Product-minded engineering for founders who need to ship.
I help founders turn ideas into working software. I bring product judgment to decide what to build first, what can wait, and where the risks are, so you avoid fragile code, missed deadlines, and a codebase you'll regret.

(01) — Where I help
Sound familiar?
Most founders I work with fall into one of these situations.
Development keeps slowing down
You have something live or partially built, but progress has stalled. Features take too long, priorities keep shifting, or the product needs someone who can step in and get things moving again.
Your app works, but feels fragile
The product is usable, but it's becoming harder to change, scale, or trust. I help review the system, clean up technical risks, and make the app easier to keep building on.

(03) — Selected work
Products, not prototypes
A few examples of products I've helped plan, build, rescue, and launch:
- 01 Edubaloo Built the product from scratch as mobile and web development lead: the iOS/Android app, the subscription platform, and the content management system that cut the team's update cycle by 40%. Shipped to 20,000+ students across both stores.
- 02 Deally Took over a mobile app in poor technical shape, stabilized the product, and helped get it released to users across the DACH region.
- 03 Dobalo Owned mobile development from MVP through launch while coordinating closely with the web team.
- 04 Olyves Brought in to solve a specific technical problem the existing engineer was stuck on. Took on more as the founders trusted my work, eventually took full ownership, and shipped the product to both stores.
(04) — What clients say
He communicated clearly whenever there were ambiguities, and tried to implement things as quickly as possible. Even after the project was completed, he was still available if something should happen.
One of the things that impressed me most was his persistence when faced with difficult problems. His determination to see things through, combined with a strong sense of ownership, makes him someone I would highly recommend.
Tofunmi is diligent and meticulous in his work. His time on our project was impactful, and I'd recommend his services to anyone without second thoughts.
(05) — Why work with me
Most developers take a brief and
Most developers take a brief and
just write code. I don't work
that way.
I start with what your product actually needs to do. I'll push back on what isn't worth building yet, and flag the decisions that get expensive to undo later. You end up with the right thing built, not just your brief turned into code.
I've taken products from MVP through launch: real users, payments, App Store releases, and the messy technical tradeoffs that only show up once the demo works. You get software you can keep building on, not something you'll have to redo in a few months.
