Hello, I'm Olaoluwa "Awesome" Akinfenwa 👋🏿

Full-Stack Developer · Founder · Open-Source Contributor

I build web applications and platforms for businesses that can't afford downtime, data loss, or technical debt. I work across the full stack from hand-written HTML/CSS/JS/PHP/MySQL applications to WordPress/WooCommerce at enterprise scale, and I pick the right tool for the job, not the familiar one.

Currently: Technical Associate @ 234 Brands · Founder @ TechAid Connect


What I've Shipped

TechAid Connect - Founder

A full-stack web application built from scratch in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP, and MySQL. Connects nonprofits with vetted tech professionals and volunteers. Built end-to-end: system architecture, dual user-role design (nonprofits and volunteers), project matching, and product roadmap.

Enterprise E-Commerce Platform Redesign - 234 Brands

As Technical Associate, led the end-to-end overhaul of KCLAN.co, a live WooCommerce store: new theme architecture, custom UX features built from scratch, and a full production database migration.

  • Migrated 8,456+ products, 5,813+ orders, and 4,644+ customers with zero data loss
  • Built Python automation (CSV/Pandas) to handle data volumes and encoding edge cases that crashed every standard import tool
  • Engineered custom PHP features: a Daily Deals rotation engine, sticky Add-to-Cart bar, and an auto-discount attribute system using save_post hooks — zero ongoing manual curation required
  • Diagnosed and resolved a multi-layered live malware infection: 49 malicious files removed, 7 attack vectors closed, a full C2 agent neutralised, server hardened across filesystem, .htaccess, wp-config.php, and database layers

ACDS Publishing - Freelance

Built and maintained a web platform for a publishing company based in Massachusetts, USA. One of 7 freelance engagements (2022–2025) spanning WordPress and custom PHP - $5,000+ earned, every project rated 5 stars.

Hawsome Site Reset - WordPress.org Plugin

An enterprise-grade asynchronous WordPress reset tool for developers. Built with AJAX chunked processing to defeat server timeouts, Sudo-Mode AppSec, zero-footprint execution, and multi-tenant database safeguards.

Sentinel Sync Engine

A fault-tolerant PHP data pipeline that mirrors data from a WordPress/Webflow CMS to a dedicated SQL database. Built with a "Failure-First" mentality.

  • Dead Letter Queue (DLQ) captures failed syncs - zero data loss on interruption
  • Idempotency via ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE - safe to re-run at any point
  • Self-Healing Recovery Worker re-processes queued items once the system recovers
  • Currency stored as integers in transit to eliminate floating-point rounding errors
  • Full PDO Prepared Statements throughout

Philosophy

My reputation is simple: reliable execution, clear thinking, and systems that last. I don't just ship features; I reduce friction and future risk. I believe that building the right thing matters much more than building fast.
