Thoughtful systems.
Useful things.
I’m Daniel Famiyeh. I build software for complex, practical problems, with curiosity that goes beyond the screen.

03 / Beyond the screen
Engineer by trade.
Curious by nature.
My route into software began with PSP homebrew, Python scripts and JavaScript games. That same urge to understand how things work still shapes what I build today.
Outside engineering, there’s crochet, ballet, playing bass and experimenting with sound and hardware. Different disciplines, the same attention to detail.
04 / Start a conversation
Something in mind?
Let’s talk.
A project to build, a role to discuss, or an interesting idea. I’d like to hear about it.
