Devon Okafor
Worked here for three years. Left calmly last spring. We've spoken 13 times, and we last spoke one day ago.
Contracting on data platform work, wrapping up in three weeks.
What they told us they want
He'd come back for embedded work if it's a team he picks, and he'd want to know the client first.

When they're free
Free in 21 days
“He said the data platform contract wraps in about three weeks and he isn't taking another one.”

Where they stand
Nothing has been written down about Devon against any of the things we need. They're someone we know, and nobody has yet had a conversation with them about one job in particular.
Here's what people noticed
“Said he's wrapping in three weeks and hasn't lined up what's next. Not urgently looking, but open.”
— Andrew, catch-up call, ten days ago
“He rewrote the intake doc on his own time because he thought the questions were leading. He was right.”
— Andrew, while he worked here, a year ago
No rating sits under any of this. A number without something someone actually saw is noise, so we don't keep one.

Nothing written down answers this yet. It’s a question for Devon, not a mark against them.
Will interview the client's staff before building anything

This compares what the need asks for against what people wrote down. There is no score under it, and there never will be.
What we don't know: Whether Nova is a client he'd want. He was clear that this matters to him.
See what that need asks forDevon is allowed to read all of this, but we don't have an email for them, so they can't find their own page yet. Add one and they can.
