Our story

Why does Happidev exist?

Because talent shouldn't depend on access. Happidev started with one young Nigerian who learnt tech the hard way, and now opens that door for businesses and new engineers alike.

  1. 01

    2015

    The first computer lessons

    A young African with a big interest in tech, very little access to computers and almost no guidance. Learning anyway, starting with basic computer training.

  2. 02

    The early years

    From web design to web development

    Self-taught through tough conditions, moving from designing pages to building complete, working products.

  3. 03

    Today

    Senior full-stack engineer

    Shipping real, live products for real businesses, from online stores and school websites to AI tools.

  4. 04

    2026

    Happidev opens its doors

    What began as a side studio goes public, to deliver worthy work and to create jobs and learning for young Nigerians in tech.

We're building what we wish we had in 2015: access, guidance and a real chance to grow.

Mission and vision

What is Happidev here to do?
