Frederick Emile Bondzie-Arthur is a Senior Software and Data Engineer at Fido, where he builds large-scale data systems, data applications and machine learning platforms that serve millions of users across Africa. With over half a decade of experience spanning fintech, e-commerce, and proptech, he has designed pipelines (batch, streaming and microbatch), backend applications, KYC & Scoring systems, orchestrated ML operations, and led engineering teams and projects to deliver products that expand access to finance and power digital growth.

Outside of engineering, Frederick serves as a Technology Liason. He focuses on onboarding, fostering team energy and culture and representing R&D in Ghana in global discussions. This combination of technical expertise and people leadership highlights his capacity to connect systems, teams, and ideas.

Beyond fintech, Emile also consults for Selar, one of Africa's leading creator-commerce platforms.

He believes AI, when used thoughtfully, can be a powerful companion for all — unlocking new possibilities while keeping authenticity at the heart.
