I'm currently a Senior Software Engineer at Step Innovations Africa and a Lead Mobile Application Developer at BelCash Technology Solutions PLC, where I build mobile products across financial and e-commerce domains.

At BelCash, I developed a wallet app with multiple sub-accounts and an e-commerce app with catalog browsing, cart management, secure payments, and user accounts. I integrated Firebase Authentication, FCM notifications, REST APIs, and Node.js backend solutions while optimizing apps with BLoC and Clean Architecture.

Previously at CIYA Technologies, I built a Flutter ride-sharing app for iOS and Android with real-time GPS tracking, Google Maps, payment integrations, and Firebase notifications. I manage deployments to the App Store and Google Play Store using Xcode and Android Studio.
