Overview

Five systems for public-sector regulators: explosives permitting, equipment import permits, firearm licensing, LPG cylinder tracking and mining-industry reporting. Client names are withheld.

What I built

  • Led the explosives permitting platform (most commits, reviewed and merged the team's pull requests).
  • Built composite role-based access, multi-stage review and assignment workflows, and licence issue, renewal and revocation with scheduled status jobs.
  • Authored the company's first Ghana.GOV e-payment integration (checkout, callbacks, QR-coded invoices, approvals blocked until payment), later reused across projects.
  • Designed the cylinder lifecycle model (manufacturer, bottler, exchange point, customer) for the LPG tracking platform.

Architecture

  • MERN stack with Ant Design on a shared internal template, deployed through GitHub Actions to PM2.
  • Embedded analytics dashboards and QR-code printing for physical permits and tags.

Results

  • Platforms delivered to government clients; details available on request where permitted.
