Profile
I'm a Nairobi-based full stack software engineer building production software for African markets. I design and ship end-to-end systems — payment rails, KRA-compliant invoicing, multi-tenant property platforms, and high-traffic storefronts — and own them through deployment, scaling, and on-call. I obsess over UI polish as much as data integrity, and I've shipped to over 60 clients without dropping a release.
Experience
Full Stack Software Engineer
2024 — PresentIndependent Studio · Nairobi
Leading end-to-end builds for fintech, proptech, and commerce clients — M-Pesa Daraja rails, KRA eTIMS reconciliation, multi-tenant Django + Next.js platforms, and zero-downtime Railway/Vercel deploys. Owning architecture, code review, and on-call across 12+ production systems.

Deep self-directed study across Django, DRF, Next.js App Router, PostgreSQL internals, React Server Components, TypeScript, and Linux/Docker fundamentals. Maintain a personal curriculum that mirrors a full engineering syllabus.
Systems Design & API Architecture
2021 — PresentSelf-Taught · Online Courses & Docs
Studied scalable system design, REST and GraphQL patterns, caching, queues, and observability through MDN, Django docs, Next.js docs, and open-source reading groups. Apply each pattern to a real shipped project before considering it learned.
Applied Engineering through Shipping
OngoingSelf-Taught · Production Projects
Treat every client and personal project as a structured learning loop — measure, refactor, and document. Have shipped 12+ full-stack systems end to end, each one stretching a different part of the stack.
