Eniola Osabiya, a 17-year-old Full-stack Developer and Cloud Engineer is passionate about technology and the creative results that can be achieved in the leading and highly-competitive space.
Eniola’s Journey Into Tech
At 12, Eniola jumped on the opportunity to learn coding in a 3-day boot camp organized by his church. Although young, Eniola dedicated 95% of his spare time to learning, perfecting his craft, acquiring more skills, and becoming better. After the program, he and his peers built a library management system as a project which they saw as fun. Five years later, Eniola has become an easily recognizable face in the Nigerian tech ecosystem as a Full Stack Developer.
Beginner’s Challenges and Solutions
Learning coding for Eniola wasn’t as seamless as he hoped. As a starter, he didn’t have the most essential things such as a personal computer, but he was able to push through by getting from those around him. Today, the teenager has been able to rise above the initial challenges and has built for himself, the foundation of what could become a leading career as a designer in the tech ecosystem.

Eniola, who had no opportunity to join a community of like minds at the time of starting a career in coding has been able to provide a solution by creating the GenZTechies, an online community of over 750 Slack members of GenZs in tech. Eniola started this initiative in January 2021.
The tech enthusiast hasn’t fully decided on his career path but he has plans of being a tech entrepreneur. He’ll like to build a team and focus on areas he is interested in such as Education, Social Development, and also build solutions around them. He is currently working on FrelaPay, a product to monitor productivity.
Eniola wants the world to expect more projects and solutions as he is working on being the next big thing in the startup space.
