AI is changing how software gets built.
But the bigger shift isn’t just AI writing code.
It’s how enterprises build, govern, deploy, and scale software in an AI-first world.
That requires a different kind of infrastructure.
One of the quietest guys in my office resigned last month.
Nobody really noticed him like that. He doesn't wear expensive clothes, hardly gives his opinions, and doesn't even post anything on social media.
While others would post about their accomplishments on LinkedIn, this guy doesn't care about that. On few occasions he talked, he'd just say:
“Forget LinkedIn jor.”
People mostly saw him as one struggling guy trying to survive Lagos. Others even think he's unserious with his life by being quiet and not making new connections.
On his last day, our manager jokingly asked him:
“So where you dey go now? Hope say no be another small company.”
That was when we found out he was relocating to Canada.
A fully sponsored job, with a far better salary than almost everybody there. Accommodation was also already sorted.
The silence in the office that day was something else.
You see...
People don't understand that not everybody advertises their life while building it. And the fact that someone is silent or not flashy doesn't mean they're not progressing.

Collection of machine learning and data science interview questions
Today I'm having a feedback meeting. 💔😌
I just got rejected for a global design role after 3 interview stages.
My second interview was with a Head of Design with 25 years of experience. I learned a lot and was shocked to even make it past that stage.
Then I got invited to the case study phase with 2 Lead Designers.
I was shocked again that I made it through. I made it past a giant with 25 yes exp.
I prepared 10-page slides for each stage.
I presented my case study.
They were friendly, honest, and taught me what it really means to think like a senior.
Today I’m meeting the recruiter to understand why I didn’t make it to the final step.
I won’t lie, I’m heartbroken.
This role would’ve had me working with teams from Germany, South Africa, the UK, Ireland, and Austria… with my own UX researcher, PM, and manager.
I was expectant.
I was ready.
But I’m still grateful.
I know I’m close to my “yes.”
Close to the right global team.
Close to the culture and opportunity I want.
Maybe not this year.
Maybe next year.
But it’s coming.
