What I'm looking for

I am looking for a dynamic role that fosters innovation and growth, where I can leverage my skills in software development and AI to make a meaningful impact.

I'm a dedicated software engineer with a strong background in developing web and desktop applications. My passion lies in leveraging innovative technologies, particularly in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. I graduated in the top 5% of the ALX Tech program and was honored to be selected for the Gold Fellowship program at The ROOM, which reflects my commitment to excellence and continuous learning.

In my current role at Kitrel LLC, I have successfully developed and maintained backend services using Node.js and TypeScript, creating high-performance APIs. My experience includes architecting scalable services, enhancing database management with SQL and NoSQL, and leading the implementation of secure authentication mechanisms. I thrive in collaborative environments, working closely with cross-functional teams to improve software lifecycle efficiency and security.

Throughout my career, I have also contributed to various projects, including developing an online portal for multi-lingual disease manuals and conducting user experience testing to enhance app performance. My technical skills encompass a wide range of programming languages and frameworks, and I am always eager to tackle new challenges that push the boundaries of technology.
