About
I'm Gerald, a software engineer from Accra, now based in Chemnitz. Most days I'm building front-end products at Hubtel, the kind with real users and real money moving through them. Away from the screen it's football, anime and books, and I do make it to a workout sometimes. To me, good software is mostly about restraint.

Citizen Web App, the national portal for tax and facility payments. I shipped four payment features: business permits, property rates, market tolls and parking tolls, including location-based flows so people pay the market nearest to them.
myCreditScore: led the move from Next.js to Nuxt 4 with server-side rendering, and kept credentials off the client behind a server proxy. Loan-default reporting went in end to end, identity and face checks through to downloadable debt reports.
School management system in React and TypeScript over a Django API. I led five front-end developers on a test-prep application and kept delivery honest with reviews and demos.
Replaced a legacy multi-page app with an Angular SPA and cut steps out of broker workflows. On the Grails side, multi-tenancy kept each client's data to itself.
