Message

I've built production ML platforms and backend systems for Credstore and BridgeLabs, owning infrastructure, CI/CD, monitoring, and deployment end to end.

At Credstore, I built a credit-scoring engine combining rule-based logic and Hidden Markov Models for real loan decisions. I also architected and shipped 50+ APIs for a consumer credit platform operating in Ghana and Rwanda.

At BridgeLabs, I built the CI/CD pipeline the team continues to use and managed cloud infrastructure as code. I also delivered a Go-based payment authorization integration that clears SAVA banking's ledger in under two seconds.

I teach applied Deep Learning and ML Pipelines at African Leadership University, supporting more than 100 students and mentoring 20 capstone students through project completion. My work also includes an OpenAI-powered assistant for Rwandan government services and TensorFlow-based genomic prediction.
