The Women of Seamfix – Stories . Growth . Impact

What’s it actually like working at Seamfix as a woman?

This Women’s Month, we asked a few of the women across our teams to share their experiences, honestly and in their own words.

From career lessons to proud moments, their stories offer a real glimpse into the culture, growth, and opportunities that define life at Seamfix.

Here’s what they had to say.

Lilian Wilfred – Head of  Finance

1.    What’s one important lesson your career has taught you so far? 

At one point, I assumed that if I just did excellent work, it would naturally be recognized. Over time, I’ve learned that you also have to advocate for your work and communicate its impact, because that’s often what drives growth and opportunity. Remember, visibility matters just as much as performance.

Visibility matters just as much as performance, doing great work is important, but advocating for it is what drives real growth and opportunity.

Seeing the business navigate tough times and market shifts without losing momentum – and knowing I played a role in keeping us financially disciplined and forward-looking through it.

It’s a place where you’re expected to show up fully, your voice, your ideas, your leadership, and that expectation pushes you to grow.

4.    What’s something about working at Seamfix that surprised you? 

Well not surprising per se, I actually love it, no matter your level, you’re entrusted with things and you have full ownership of them. Very quickly, you realize that you’re not just here to “do your job” you’re trusted to think, challenge things, and influence decisions that really matter.

5.    What’s one piece of advice you’d give to a woman considering joining Seamfix? 

Don’t wait until you feel 100% ready, just come in, lean in, and engage even beyond your role. The environment rewards people who take initiative and speak up, and you’ll learn much faster by being in the middle of things than sitting on the sidelines.

Olajumoke Jackson-Emuraishe – Senior Product Manager 

1. What’s one important lesson your career has taught you so far?

Early in my career, I thought progress came from doing more. Over time, I’ve learned it actually comes from understanding better. The biggest shift for me was realizing that if a problem isn’t clearly defined, owned, and measured, nothing truly moves. Now, I spend more time asking the right questions than rushing to solutions and that has made all the difference.

2. What’s one moment at Seamfix that made you feel proud?

One moment that made me proud was realizing how far I had come after transitioning from product design into product management. At the start, everything felt unfamiliar from technical conversations to structuring requirements and owning product decisions. But over time, I saw myself learning quickly, asking better questions, and stepping into rooms with more clarity and confidence. Even though I’m still growing, being able to adapt, stretch, and hold my own in a completely new role made me genuinely proud of myself.

3. In one sentence, how would you describe what it’s like working here as a woman?

It’s a place that stretches you to think deeply and speak confidently, while giving you the opportunity to influence decisions that truly matter.

4. What’s something about working at Seamfix that surprised you?

I was surprised by how much ambiguity exists around important problems and how that ambiguity is actually an opportunity. It forces you to step up, bring structure, and create clarity where none exists.

5. What’s one piece of advice you would give a woman considering joining Seamfix?

Come in ready to take ownership. Don’t wait for perfect direction or complete clarity. The people who grow the most here are the ones who ask thoughtful questions, challenge assumptions, and turn unclear situations into meaningful outcomes.

Agnes Onah – Technical Recruiter 

1. What’s one important lesson your career has taught you so far?

I’ve learned that trust and proactiveness are real currencies in your career. When people can rely on you to take initiative and deliver consistently, it builds credibility and opens doors you didn’t even know existed.

2. What’s one moment at Seamfix that made you feel proud?

There have been quite a few, but one that stands out is closing key hires and then watching them integrate successfully into the team. It’s fulfilling to know I played a role in building the workforce that drives the organization forward.

It’s empowering because your contribution makes a difference and it’s valued as long as you show commitment and consistency.

The level of ownership given to employees, regardless of role or level. Although, I won’t necessarily say it came as a surprise.

Take initiative, be adaptable, and adopt an ownership mindset; there’s room to grow if you’re willing to step up. 

Ayomide Ojo – Senior Product Manager

I’ve learned to always ask questions when in doubt. Seeking clarity early not only helps you avoid mistakes, but also shows that you’re intentional about learning and doing things right.

2. What’s one moment at Seamfix that made you feel proud?

One moment that stood out for me was the go-live of the ePass.bj project, especially receiving the compliance report confirming that all our changes had zero rollbacks. It was a strong validation of the team’s effort and attention to detail, and I was proud to be part of that success.

The ePass go-live with zero rollbacks was a proud moment, it showed the level of precision and ownership we bring to our work.
