What I'm looking for

I seek remote-ready senior full-stack roles building scalable, secure systems for development programs, with scope to lead architecture, mentor teams, and apply ICT4D best practices.

I am a versatile, impact-driven full-stack software engineer with over five years of experience delivering digital solutions for ICT4D and enterprise contexts. I design and implement scalable, secure applications and RESTful APIs using technologies such as Python (Django, Flask), PHP (Laravel), and mobile stacks.

I have led end-to-end Android app development, built M&E systems and knowledge-management platforms, and delivered enterprise software suites and dashboards that improved program visibility and field reporting. Key contributions include an offline-capable Android field data app, a comprehensive digital M&E system integrating ODK, and robust backend APIs for nonprofit operations.

I focus on practical, maintainable solutions in low-resource, mobile-first environments, and I mentor peers to improve code quality and architecture. I bring a collaborative mindset, experience in system integration and data systems, and a commitment to sustainable digital transformation.
