Ajao Adedamola,
Cloud Engineer
Lagos, Nigeria
I build and run cloud infrastructure on AWS — networking, deployment pipelines, and the automation that keeps them cheap and boring. Most of my work has been making other people's software reliable enough that nobody thinks about it. I work on the data side too, turning messy operational data into dashboards people actually make decisions from. I care most about infrastructure that is written down, reproducible, and cheap to run.
Things I've built
Forked a self-hosted mail client off Cloudflare Workers and rebuilt the backend on AWS: Lambda, single-table DynamoDB, S3 and SES. Wrote a custom SvelteKit adapter for API Gateway, assembled raw MIME so the app controls its own threading, and provisioned the whole stack in Terraform.
