What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build secure, scalable mobile products, particularly in banking, insurance, and AI-enabled experiences, while improving architecture, modernizing Android code, and collaborating closely with product, design, and backend teams.

At Equity Bank Group, I lead integration of the Insure product into Equity Mobile and drive Jetpack Compose adoption for scalable feature development. I work with product, design, and backend teams to deliver secure mobile banking experiences.

Previously at mTek Services, I led Clean Architecture and MVVM adoption, built reusable SDK components, integrated payment and insurance platforms, and automated releases. I've also built Android and backend systems with Kotlin, Python, C#, REST APIs, and databases, while contributing to Gemini Android capability improvement through SFT, model evaluation, and RLHF workflows.
