Godknows EgiEngineer, founder, lifelong learner.

My full name is Godknows Ejike Egi. Most of my government documents use Godknows Egi.

My path into software started with JavaScript and a curiosity for how things work. Since then, I’ve built logistics applications, sustainability platforms, content systems, and voice products, moving between the interface and the infrastructure behind it.

Today I’m a Senior Software Engineer II at Scrapays and the founder of PlatformVoice. I care about accessible interfaces, reliable systems, and helping other engineers do their best work. Earlier in my career, that meant mentoring more than 80 aspiring developers at Inmotion ICT Hub.

Outside my day-to-day engineering work, I’m studying Computer Science at the University of the People and developing NeocortAI, a private AI memory layer. I like taking a problem from the first conversation through to something people can actually use.
