Our passion is solving real world problems – Dafe Software founders

The founders of Dafe Software Ltd., Jefferson Orakpoyovuwuru and Emmanuel Okoh, have said they place primacy on solving real life problems than any other consideration, which is why the IT firm is making impact in the rapidly evolving world of technology.

They said Dafe Software has quickly gained recognition as a leading software development company in Nigeria, with their extensive experience and dedication to excellence positioning them as pioneers in the field.

The duo made their points in a statement on Wednesday, noting that Dafe Software is a team of talented professionals, including product designers, software engineers, cloud engineers, and scrum masters.

“Their collective expertise allows us to provide custom software solutions tailored to the unique needs of businesses, regardless of size.

“By utilizing cutting-edge technology and adopting best practices like the Agile methodology, Dafe Software delivers projects in a timely fashion, ensuring client satisfaction,” they said.

The statement described Jefferson Orakpoyovuwuru, the founder and senior software engineer of Dafe Software, as a highly skilled individual with over a decade of experience in the industry, whose passion for using technology to solve real-world problems has garnered him a stellar reputation as an innovative software engineer.

Emmanuel Okoh, the co-founder and senior software engineer at Dafe Software, is an accomplished developer with over eight years of experience.

“Together with Jefferson, Emmanuel has spearheaded various software projects, ranging from custom software development to mobile application development. Emmanuel’s drive to tackle new challenges has propelled him and his team to new heights,” it added.

Among the notable projects undertaken by Dafe Software is an Exam Assessment Mobile application developed for the Government of Canada.

This application, deployed on Android and iOS platforms, was designed for International Registered Nurses in a Canadian province. Completed in a remarkable three-month timeframe, the application showcases Dafe Software’s efficiency and commitment to excellence.

Another noteworthy achievement is the development of “9jaedugames,” an educational and entertaining application for secondary school students.

This gamified app, available on Android and iOS, allows students to test their IQ, memory, and general knowledge while enjoying a rewarding in-app experience.

Dafe Software’s ability to create engaging educational solutions demonstrates their commitment to harnessing technology for learning purposes.

Currently, Dafe Software is focused on projects in the areas of video conferencing and communications, as well as education, including school management and result checking for a new generation polytechnic.

The company’s goal, the statement noted, is to digitize and automate processes for businesses, organizations, and companies, providing them with seamless systems that add value and increase revenue.

Jefferson Orakpoyovuwuru shed light on his inspiration for pursuing a career in software engineering.

His words: “I always wanted to be a computer programmer, solving problems no matter how technical or challenging they may seem.

“My first experience writing software ignited my passion and since then, I’ve been dedicated to creating problem-solving software from scratch.”

When asked about the challenges he has faced along the way, Jefferson highlighted the financial difficulties of pursuing a passion-driven career.

He stated, “Writing software primarily out of passion rather than financial gains was challenging, especially during the initial years.

“However, I believe that a career in programming should be a full-time commitment and not just a hobby.”

Jefferson’s greatest accomplishment thus far has been working with the Canadian government.

He expressed his pride, stating, “Leading my team to build a fully functional mobile application with a web administrative app that met the needs and standards of the Canadian government was a significant achievement. It is a testament to the expertise and dedication of the entire team at Dafe Software.”

For aspiring professionals in the field, Jefferson’s advice is straightforward: “Consistency is key. Programming should be treated as a full-time.”
