Oluwadamilola Faith Akindolire is the founder of HireTuyi, an AI-powered career platform helping graduates, career switchers, and job seekers learn digital skills, build stronger applications, discover real opportunities, and grow their careers, all in one place. She's based in Aberdeen, Scotland.
Her path here wasn't a straight line, and that's part of the point. Oluwadamilola studied Chemistry for her undergraduate degree, then pivoted almost immediately into marketing. She spent several years working as a social media manager and content strategist, going fully remote in 2021, a shift that never reversed. Marketing has stayed a constant thread through everything she's built since.
Along the way, she followed a genuine passion into skincare, training in cosmetic science, manual facials, microneedling, and advanced skin peeling, including international certification through CIDESCO. That interest is still growing: she's currently pursuing a postgraduate degree in Medical Imaging, with plans to work as a skin imaging diagnostics consultant, bringing together her scientific background and her passion for skin health in a more clinical, technical direction.
But it was digital skills, specifically social media management, that changed the actual trajectory of her life. Learning to work remotely gave her financial independence and let her build a career on her own terms, something she didn't take for granted. In May 2025, she started sharing what she'd learned: practical, honest content about remote work and digital skills. That content resonated. Her following grew past 100,000 on TikTok, and with it came a flood of messages: “Can you check my CV?” “Where do I even find jobs?” “How do I get started?”
She noticed the same questions coming up again and again, and no single place that answered all of them well. That gap became HireTuyi. The name is a small piece of the mission itself: in Spanish, “tú” means “you,” so HireTuyi reads as “Hire You and Ifedami,” a platform built to help you get hired, built by someone who's lived the process of learning a skill, building proof of it, and turning that into real opportunity.
Oluwadamilola holds more than 50 certifications across her areas of expertise and has been recognized with several industry awards for her work in digital skills education and content strategy. She recently completed an internship with the University of Aberdeen's online department as an AI Content Innovator, work that directly informs how HireTuyi uses AI to give people genuinely useful, personalized career guidance rather than generic advice.
Today, she balances building HireTuyi, her postgraduate studies in medical imaging, her ongoing marketing work, and teaching digital skills to her community online, still guided by the same belief that got her here: the right skill, learned well and proven through real work, can change the entire direction of someone's life.
