Hi there 👋 stranger,

Brief introduction

I’m a full-stack software engineer based in Nairobi, Kenya, with 5+ years of experience building and shipping production systems across manufacturing, fintech, analytics, and internal business tools.

My strongest experience is in Flutter (cross-platform mobile applications) and Ruby on Rails–based backends. I enjoy owning features end-to-end—from architecture and implementation to deployment, iteration, and long-term maintenance.

Most of my professional work has been on proprietary production systems, so not all of it is publicly available on GitHub. I document real-world engineering decisions, deployments, and tradeoffs through writing and case-study style posts.

What I work with

  • 💻 Backend: Ruby on Rails, PostgreSQL, REST APIs, authentication & authorization
  • 💻 Frontend & Mobile: Flutter, Vue.js, Tailwind CSS
  • 💻 Practices: System design, refactoring, performance optimization, CI/CD
  • 💻 Tooling: Git, Linux, AI-assisted development (Cursor, ChatGPT, Claude)
