Senior development expertise, without the agency overhead

I'm Uzoma, a software engineer with 10+ years of experience building products that scale. When you work with me, you get direct access to the person writing your code, making architectural decisions, and shipping your product.

Tired of these problems?

If any of these sound familiar, you're not alone. It's why I started Faktia.

Paying premium rates for junior work

You hire an agency, pay senior rates, but your project gets passed to inexperienced developers.

Communication through layers

Account managers, project managers, team leads. By the time your feedback reaches the developer, it's lost in translation.

Missed deadlines and scope creep

Projects drag on. Estimates double. You're left wondering if it will ever ship.

Technical debt from day one

Rushed code that works today but becomes a maintenance nightmare tomorrow.

What you get when you work with me

No layers. No handoffs. Just experienced development focused on shipping your product.

Direct access to senior expertise

You work directly with me. Every call, every decision, every line of code gets senior-level attention.

Clear, honest communication

No middlemen. When you have a question, you get an answer from the person actually building your product.

Realistic timelines that hold

I only take on projects I can deliver. You get honest estimates and consistent progress updates.

Code built to last

Clean architecture, proper testing, and documentation. Your product will be maintainable long after launch.

I've done this before

Before starting Faktia, I spent a decade building and scaling products. Here's what that looks like:

600K+

users on a video platform I architected and scaled

700+

schools using systems I helped build at Juniper Education

10+
