Bernado ADIKPETO
Full-Stack | Backend Engineer | API & Shopify | Game Dev
I design and build secure and scalable backend systems and REST APIs using 
Python (FastAPI) and 
Node.js (Express, NestJS), with experience across the full web stack.
I am currently focused on authentication systems, payment integrations (
Stripe / 
Flutterwave), marketplaces and 
Shopify app integrations, while also building frontends with React / Next.js and Vue.js.
I also enjoy game development with Unreal Engine 5 as a secondary focus.
Originally from 
Benin in West Africa, I currently live in Abomey-Calavi and work as a backend engineer with a strong JavaScript background, oriented towards API design and backend architecture.
