Oluwanifemi Fadare

Engineer Design Lead @ Saints Performance Automotive Design

About

I am a Computer Science and Philosophy graduate from the University of St Andrews with hands-on experience across software engineering, systems design, research, and technical leadership. I have worked on a range of applied projects including game development, research software, Android applications, and long-term engineering projects, with experience spanning full-stack development, object-oriented programming, data validation, and project leadership. Alongside formal roles, I have spent the past 18 months building and experimenting with independent technical projects, strengthening my practical engineering skills, problem-solving ability, and systems thinking. I am now seeking graduate or junior software engineering roles where I can contribute to real-world products, continue learning from experienced teams, and apply both technical depth and analytical thinking.
