Kibugu Ian
@kibuguian
Full-Stack Engineer specializing in scalable web, mobile, and AI-driven data solutions.
What I'm looking for
I am a Full-Stack Engineer with a strong focus on building scalable web and mobile applications, and applying Data & AI engineering to production systems. I combine front-end expertise in React and TypeScript with back-end skills in Node.js and cloud deployment.
At the Kenya Revenue Authority I designed and deployed ML pipelines for revenue forecasting and fraud detection, improving accuracy by 22% and automating ETL processes to reduce manual work by 40%. I deploy models with Docker, FastAPI, and CI/CD to ensure reliability and scalability.
Previously I built healthcare and finance systems, creating modular front ends, Dockerized microservices, and AI-assisted features that reduced downtime and improved security posture. I’ve implemented NLP solutions, BI dashboards with Power BI and Streamlit, and performant APIs with enhanced caching.
I thrive in collaborative Agile teams, contribute to open-source, mentor developers, and focus on delivering production-ready systems that balance performance, security, and maintainability.
