02 / THE ENGINEER BEHIND THE WORK

One problem.
Many ways to build.

I'm Achor Ugochukwu Nelson.
You can call me Flames.

My work sits at the intersection of software engineering, product design, automation and physical technology. I care about how a system works in the environment it was built for including unreliable connectivity, low-power devices and everyday business constraints.

With a background in Computer Engineering, I work across APIs, web and mobile applications, local-network tools, computer vision and embedded systems.
