About
I'm Taofeek — a software engineer and quantum computing researcher based in Lagos, Nigeria. I work at the intersection of classical systems and quantum algorithms, building tools to make quantum hardware more useful and accessible.
My current focus is quantum error correction — specifically surface codes and the decoding algorithms that make them practical. I believe fault-tolerant quantum computing is one of the most important engineering challenges of the next decade, and I'm working to contribute to it.
On the software side, I care deeply about systems that are simple, correct, and fast. I write mostly Python, TypeScript, and Go. I believe in reading source code, understanding fundamentals, and shipping things.
