What I'm looking for

I’m looking to build end-to-end products in small teams where engineering and product decisions overlap. I thrive async-first, shipping real operational outcomes with TypeScript across the stack.

I’m a full-stack engineer with a builder-founder mindset, designing and shipping complete systems end to end—from database schema to user interface—with a focus on real operational outcomes.

Since 2023, I’ve built and delivered client products across edtech and fintech, owning the full lifecycle: scoping, architecture, development, deployment, and client handover. I delivered EagleSync for Golden Eagle Schools, which evolved into Lumeka, a multi-tenant SaaS, and I also built EduPay (EduCredit) enabling school fee loans repaid via M-Pesa with USSD access and CRB-compliant credit checks.

In parallel, I support founders in residence during an 8-week accelerator as a Program Facilitator, guiding product strategy and helping teams move from idea to demo-ready. I write TypeScript on both sides of the stack, work async-first, and operate best in small teams where engineering and product decisions overlap.
