Maureen Gicharu
@maureengicharu
Low-code web developer and tech-ops professional bridging people and automation with UI/UX and QA rigor.
What I'm looking for
I’m a people-driven operations and technology professional with hands-on experience across executive support, quality assurance, and digital automation. I focus on accuracy, seamless delivery, and making sure clients feel supported while systems run in the background.
In low-code web development, I design and deploy user-friendly, scalable applications using platforms like Adalo, Bubble, and Cursor. I translate business requirements into polished, usable web solutions—while streamlining workflows to improve turnaround and operational effectiveness.
I build automation that connects tools and removes manual effort, using n8n, Zapier, and Make.com for CRM and app workflows. I also support scalable API integrations, and I use structured testing and reporting to identify issues early and help teams ship with confidence.
Across UI/UX, QA, and operations, my strength is bridging people and technology—combining warm communication with a detail-oriented, improvement-focused mindset. I enjoy coordinating delivery and feedback loops so products and processes get better every cycle.
