i'm olayinka omole, or just yinka (pronounced yeen-ka), a software developer based in london. i currently work as a lead software engineer at Personio, building compensation systems at scale. i'm also a member of Interact, a fellowship of technologists.

i've had the privilege to work with lots of amazing people at different organisations, including the largest hotel booking agency in Nigeria, and a couple of Fortune 500 companies. you can see my full work history on LinkedIn.

some of my work has been published. these include a paper on the use of the Internet of Things for energy management and a book on the use of Koa for modern web development. i also speak at conferences about building systems in regulated environments.

in my spare time i love to listen to music, read all kinds of books, sketch, take pictures, play the guitar, write articles, work on small DIY electronics projects, and watch funny TV shows. i have a lot of hobbies ( ._.)

you can find me on x, github, instagram and medium. you can also just send me a mail if you want to discuss anything interesting — olayinka.omole@gmail.com.
