What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can apply AI model development and full‑stack skills to improve educational products, contribute to content quality, and work in a collaborative, impact‑focused team.

I am an EdTech founder and self-taught full-stack developer who built an AI-powered study platform from concept to live product.

At ExamBuddy I led user research, data collection, content validation and ongoing content quality control to align with South Africa's educational standards.

Previously I worked as a Huawei network engineer designing, implementing and maintaining enterprise network infrastructure and hold CCNA, CCNP and other Cisco certifications.

I continuously fine-tune AI model outputs to reduce hallucinations and combine technical engineering, content design and user feedback to improve learning outcomes.
