Building scalable software solutions and leading high-performing engineering teams
Designing and implementing scalable, maintainable software systems using modern technologies and best practices.
Leading and mentoring engineering teams, establishing technical standards, and driving engineering excellence.
Providing expert guidance on technology strategy, system design, and engineering processes to drive business success.
Key projects and contributions across fintech, agtech, and AI-powered solutions
Co-founded and built enterprise-grade conversational AI platform from the ground up. Architected scalable microservices infrastructure supporting multi-tenant deployments with advanced NLP capabilities and seamless integration with modern tech stacks.
Built cross-platform mobile application serving 1M+ smallholder farmers across Africa. Developed offline-first architecture for farmer enrollment, loan management, and supply chain optimization in low-connectivity environments.
Architected and deployed USSD application serving farmers across Kenya, Rwanda, Zambia, Nigeria, and other African countries. Enabled feature phone access to critical agricultural services and financial transactions.
Designed and implemented secure payment processing systems handling millions of transactions. Built webhook platform and RESTful APIs for card processing, mobile money integration, and merchant management with PCI-DSS compliance.
Delivered 50+ successful projects for global clients, specializing in scalable web applications, mobile apps, and cloud infrastructure. Consistently achieved 95%+ client satisfaction with on-time, high-quality deliverables.
Built and led high-performing engineering teams of 5-15 developers. Established technical standards, code review processes, and agile methodologies resulting in 40% improvement in delivery velocity.
I'm a Lead React Native Engineer and Engineering Manager with 7+ years of mobile development experience (React Native since 2019) and a track record of shipping high-impact consumer apps at scale. I architected and delivered Tupande — a cross-platform offline-first React Native app serving 1 million+ smallholder farmers across Africa — which won the 2023 Best Agriculture App in Kenya.
My journey has taken me through leading organisations like One Acre Fund, PaySwitch, and Buni.ai, where I've combined deep technical execution with cross-cultural engineering leadership. I've built and mentored teams of 5–15 developers, defined React Native coding standards and mobile CI/CD pipelines, and driven scalable system design from conception through App Store and Play Store deployment.
I have hands-on experience bridging native iOS (Swift) and Android (Kotlin) platforms and a passion for performance-optimised, offline-first mobile architectures. When I'm not building, you'll find me at the gym or exploring the latest in mobile engineering.
Built and deployed solutions across multiple continents, serving millions of users
