Kasim Mustapha
Senior Software Engineer
I design and ship products end to end — web platforms, the boards and firmware underneath them, and the games built on top of them. Based in Lagos, working with teams everywhere.
Engineering across the whole stack — silicon to screen.
I'm Kasim Mustapha, a senior software engineer and the founder of Litewave Technologies, currently studying Mechatronics Engineering at AFIT. I like problems that cross disciplines: a product isn't finished until the software, the hardware, and the experience all agree with each other.
Full-stack platforms
Multi-tenant SaaS, marketplaces, and dashboards built on Next.js, TypeScript, and Postgres — designed to hold up under real usage, not just demo well.
Embedded & IoT
ESP32 firmware, battery management systems, BLE telemetry, and the KiCad boards they run on. I'm as comfortable in a schematic as I am in a component tree.
Game development
Unity gameplay systems and physics — from vehicle controllers to the mechanics that make a world feel alive, built with the same engineering discipline as production software.
B.Eng Mechatronics Engineering — Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT), 2024–present. Coursework in embedded systems and IoT feeds directly back into shipped hardware.
- LearnFlow — multi-tenant LMS/SMS platform for schools
- RemoteNest — three-sided remote work marketplace
Tools I reach for, across every layer.
Four disciplines, one way of working: understand the system fully before shipping any part of it.
Product engineering, end to end.
Selected products, live in the wild.
A mix of ventures I've founded and products I've built for clients — spanning marketplaces, energy infrastructure, education, and games.
RemoteNest
Litewave Technologies · Founder & full-stack engineer
A three-sided remote work marketplace matching companies, freelancers, and developers through jobs, gigs, and bounties — with escrow payments and AI-assisted matching.
NextArc Studio
Game studio site · Unity developer
Studio site for an indie game label building The Aftermath, a tactical extraction shooter, and Arc Veil, an atmospheric metroidvania — both engineered in Unity.
LearnFlow
Litewave Technologies · Founder & full-stack engineer
A multi-tenant LMS/SMS platform for high schools and colleges — role-based dashboards for admins, staff, students, and guardians on a single codebase.
FLUX Energy
Litewave Technologies · Product & platform engineer
Industrial-grade energy platform for inverters, lithium storage, and solar infrastructure across Africa, with a real-time IoT monitoring dashboard.
Turaath International School
Client project · Full-stack engineer
A school website spanning admissions, academics, and news for a Nigerian K–12 institution, built for clarity and easy content updates.
A working log, not a résumé PDF.

Have something worth building? Let's talk.
Open to freelance projects, collaborations, and full-time roles — web platforms, embedded hardware, or something that mixes both.
