What I'm looking for

I'm seeking R&D or engineering roles where I can prototype IoT/AI products, collaborate across teams, mentor learners, and deliver scalable, data-driven solutions in agritech, fintech, or related fields.

I am a Python engineer and research-and-development specialist focused on building emerging and disruptive technologies, with hands-on experience in IoT, AI, and mobile applications. At Afriven Research & Innovation Facility I design and prototype smart devices, farming robots, connectivity solutions, and mobile apps while conducting experiments and refining solutions for efficiency and scalability.

I have taught mobile app development and IoT at KuaZone College and worked as a junior Android engineer, delivering projects such as a Java rent-payment app, Android chat app, and Python chatbot systems. I hold a BSc in Computer Science (Second Class Honors, Upper) and certifications in AWS Machine Learning, Python for Machine Learning and Data Science, and Blockchain, and I collaborate with innovators to drive technology adoption.
