I build scalable web and mobile applications for international clients.
CameroonWhat I'm looking for
I've built scalable web and mobile applications for River Pools, Zinger Systems, and ActivSpaces, spanning marketing dashboards, CMS platforms, API integrations, and internal admin tools.
At Zinger Systems, I lead a nine-person development team, scope requirements with international clients, and mentor junior developers in JavaScript, PHP, and Flutter. My full-stack delivery work includes Vue, React, Node.js, Laravel, Java, Spring Boot, Django, and mobile development with Flutter and React Native.
Through ActivSpaces, I helped more than 50 startups build MVPs that raised over $500K in funding, organized 2,000+ tech events, and trained 10,000+ youth. I also deliver workshops on entrepreneurship and secure coding while supporting the Silicon Mountain ecosystem in Cameroon.
