Blazer

Hi, I'm Josh 👋

Full-stack & systems engineer. I build and ship across the TypeScript ecosystem, cloud infrastructure, and web3 — from startup MVPs to production distributed systems.

I care about clean, maintainable code, security by default, and software that holds up under real load.

  • 🔭 Building distributed systems in Go and Rust, and going deeper on web3 (Rust smart contracts, ZK proofs)
  • 🌍 Based in Nigeria (UTC+1) · open to remote roles and freelance
  • 📫 Reach me: joshblazerwillie@gmail.com
  • 🔗 Portfolio · LinkedIn

🧰 Tech

Languages: TypeScript · JavaScript · Rust · Go · Python · SQL Frontend: React · Next.js · Tailwind CSS Backend: Node.js · PostgreSQL · Prisma · Redis Cloud & Infra: AWS (Lambda, SAM, DynamoDB, EventBridge, STS) · Docker · GitHub Actions · Linux Web3: Rust smart-contract development · Solidity · ZK proofs (Circom, Noir) — actively building


🚀 Featured projects

Sluice — Distributed job scheduler

Go · PostgreSQL · Redis · etcd Horizontally scalable, durable scheduler with at-least-once delivery and idempotency keys. PostgreSQL as the durable source of truth with a Redis hot path; leader election via etcd for high availability. Instrumented with Prometheus metrics and OpenTelemetry traces. Designed for 10k+ jobs/sec on commodity hardware.

Cloud Shield — Serverless cloud-security posture manager (CSPM)

Python · AWS SAM · Lambda · DynamoDB Continuously audits AWS accounts against security policies on an hourly schedule. Assumes read-only roles into member accounts via STS for multi-account coverage; tracks every finding through a full lifecycle (acknowledge / snooze / exempt / resolve) with an append-only audit trail. Run-over-run diffing distinguishes new, regressed, and exempted findings. 104 passing tests.

Velora — Kanban board app

Next.js · Prisma · NextAuth · PostgreSQL Drag-and-drop board with label and priority management, plus full credential auth including email verification and password-reset flows.

Best Secondary — Educational platform

Next.js · TypeScript · Tailwind CSS Educational web platform for secondary-school students — designed, built, and deployed to production.


Currently a B.Tech Software Engineering student at FUTA (Federal University of Technology, Akure), shipping production work alongside my degree.
