About
Jaiye Labs
Jaiye Labs is a solo software engineering studio. I build the things that other agencies outsource — faster and cheaper because I use AI well.
I operate as a product engineer — not an agency, not a typical freelancer. Every project gets the same rigor and attention to detail as if I were building my own product. I care about architecture, code quality and whether the thing actually works six months after launch.
My work spans mobile applications, web platforms, AI-powered systems and technical consulting. I like working with founders and product teams who have a real problem to solve — and I stay involved from first conversation through launch and beyond.
Founder
Rebecca Akinlaja
Software engineer. Studio founder. AI-augmented.
Rebecca is a software engineer and the founder of Jaiye Labs. She started the studio to close a gap she kept seeing — founders and teams with real product ideas, paired with agencies that delivered half-built prototypes and moved on.
She leads engineering on every project — writing code, reviewing architecture, and using AI as a force multiplier, not a crutch. The details that most teams skip are the ones she focuses on: edge cases, performance under real usage, and whether the product still works well six months after launch.
Jaiye Labs is an extension of how she works — solo, AI-augmented, high standards, and a bias toward shipping things that are genuinely useful.
Principles
How I think
The stuff I actually stand behind — not just things that sound good on a website.
Engineering First
Engineer first, everything else second. Every decision is grounded in technical rigor — not trends, not hype, not what looks good in a pitch deck.
Transparency
No black boxes. You have full visibility into the process, progress and decision-making. If something is going wrong, you'll hear it from me first.
Quality Over Speed
I move deliberately. Shipping fast matters, but not at the expense of reliability. I've seen too many projects that launched fast and broke faster.
Long-term Thinking
I build systems designed to grow with your business. Quick fixes create tomorrow's technical debt — I'd rather do it right the first time.
Let's build something.
Always open to the next meaningful project.
No polished spec required. Early ideas welcome.
