He has worked in the following sectors: computing, journalism, education, agriculture, and finance. His career straddles both the public and private sectors.

He also helped design and build at least 50 web applications and websites for organizations and individuals.

Dr Dooba is the founder/CEO of Mentor10 Software Engineering which mentors Arewa youth in the tech field and helps them to get relevant jobs through boot camps.
