We engineerthe structurebeneath ambitiouscompanies.
Syntree is a technology studio that builds software products, ships ventures, and partners with ambitious organisations to engineer the systems that scale.
What we've built.
Each venture is a node in the tree — independent, purposeful, and connected by the same engineering rigour.
FlockPilot
Farm intelligence, engineered for scale
Multi-tenant SaaS platform transforming how African farms manage livestock, finance, and operations — from a single dashboard.
Finby
Your finances, finally fluent
AI-powered, chat-first personal finance app that turns everyday money decisions into conversations your wallet will thank you for.
Africar
The ride infrastructure Africa deserves
A modern, driver-first taxi-hailing platform built for the nuances of African urban mobility.
In the roots
Something's taking root
Every great product starts as a node in a syntax tree. The next branch is already forming.
Every product we build is a node. Every node has a purpose. The tree grows.

Problems left to solve
Syntree was founded on a single conviction: most technology problems are actually structure problems. The code is rarely the issue. The thinking behind it is.
We are a technology studio operating at the intersection of software engineering and systems thinking. We build our own ventures. We work with companies that want to think differently about how technology serves their goals. And we believe the best software is the kind that becomes invisible — so reliable, so well-structured, that the people using it can focus entirely on what they came to do.
// FOUNDED BY
Oluwatimilehin Akinnubi
Founder & Executive Director
Senior software engineer, tech lead, and product builder with over five years engineering production systems across Nigeria, the Philippines, and the US. Oluwatimilehin has led engineering teams at Assembled Systems and Bridge360, built and shipped FlockPilot and Finby, and is co-founder and CTO of Africar.
He started Syntree because great engineering shouldn't be a geography problem — and because ambitious companies, wherever they operate, deserve the same quality of technology thinking that powers the world's best software studios.
// HOW WE THINK
Structure before speed.
Most software fails not because it was built slowly, but because it was built without a clear structure beneath it. We design the architecture first — always.
Craft is non-negotiable.
We believe there is a version of every system that is genuinely elegant — where the code is clean, the data model is sound, and the user never notices the machinery. That version is the only one worth shipping.
Outcomes over output.
Lines of code are not the product. The working system in the hands of a real user is. We measure our work by what changes in the world, not what ships from the terminal.
Build with us.
We're not hiring to fill seats. When we grow the team, it will be for one reason: we found someone who cares as much about the craft as we do. If that's you, we want to know you exist — before we post a single role.
// YOU MIGHT BE ONE OF US IF...
- ✓You ship before you perfect.
- ✓You have opinions about architecture.
- ✓You read documentation for fun.
- ✓You've built something for yourself, not just for a client.
- ✓You think in systems, not features.
- ✓You're bothered by things that don't work well.
