About me

profile-pic

Hey, I'm Precious Nwaoha — also known as Takara. A Senior Fullstack Product & AI Engineer with 6+ years shipping web, mobile, desktop, and AI-powered products from idea to production.

I'm the kind of engineer who ships. I've built two AI SaaS products completely solo that each hit over $5,000 in revenue, won 4 global blockchain hackathons, and serve as Founding Engineer (AI) at Pharmora — the #1 Healthcare delivery app in West Africa.

I integrate LLMs into production daily — with proper LLMOps, evals, model pooling, and RAG pipelines. Not just wrappers — real systems.
