Staff-level full-stack engineer building high-performance real-time platforms and scalable architectures.
ZimbabweWhat I'm looking for
I’m a staff-level full-stack engineer and founder who designs systems end-to-end—from architecture to production delivery. I built a compiler engine that converts visual diagram configurations into an AST to automatically generate dependency-free code, including database models, APIs, and built-in RBAC, ABAC, and ReBAC.
I optimize performance and developer velocity through thoughtful engineering: I improved a high-performance canvas using React Flow and a custom Zustand-based state layer, and I created a Git-like version control system for database schemas using lightweight parented diffs. I’ve also migrated monoliths to microservices with Apollo Federation, automated CI/CD with Jenkins and Docker for zero-downtime deployments, and delivered real-time WebSocket experiences plus cross-platform UI tooling with React Native and a Tailwind-inspired styling engine.
