What I'm looking for
I'm a passionate and self-driven Python/Django Software Engineer with 1 year of hands-on experience building scalable backend systems, RESTful APIs, and practical, real-world applications. I specialize in using Django, Django REST Framework, and MySQL to create reliable, maintainable software that solves meaningful problems.
I’m driven by a deep desire to use technology as a force for good—to simplify complex tasks, streamline operations, and build tools that make life easier for users and businesses alike. From building RESTful APIs and ORM models to designing full backend services and integrating with frontend systems, I enjoy every part of the development process.
My most recent personal project, a Dairy Farm Management System, is aimed at digitizing and transforming dairy operations in East Africa. It reflects my belief that technology should create impact, especially in underserved industries and communities.
I work well in agile, collaborative teams and remote environments, and I’m always looking for opportunities to learn, contribute, and grow through meaningful software development.
