FEISAL MUKHWANA
@feisalmukhwana
I build secure IT infrastructure, ERP integrations, and WordPress platforms that reduce downtime and grow online sales.
What I'm looking for
I've supported retail and business operations at Fayaz Bakers Limited, Mayford Investments, and Compulynx Limited through secure infrastructure, ERP support, payment integrations, and web platforms.
At Fayaz Bakers, I managed IT infrastructure for a retail chain, supervised 5+ technicians, and introduced a maintenance schedule that reduced downtime by 30%. I also worked with department heads to improve retail system efficiency by 25% and led payment-system transformation efforts.
At Mayford Investments, I developed and integrated an e-commerce platform that increased online sales by 40%, while leading the development and infrastructure team. I integrated PayPal and M-Pesa APIs, trained end users, and reduced support calls by 20%.
I'm also experienced in WordPress management, cloud services, network deployment, security cameras, SQL Server management, and Python-based eTIMS API integrations for ERP solutions. I enjoy turning operational requirements into secure, practical technology systems that help teams work better.
