Services offered

I'm a full-stack software developer with proven experience delivering production-ready applications across web and mobile platforms. At Cloudoon, I developed and maintained enterprise solutions including a site builder platform with marketing integrations (Mautic, Google Analytics) and the Jisort microfinance system built on Apache Fineract, where I served as sole developer implementing custom features, financial reporting, and third-party integrations (M-Pesa, Equity Jenga API, Africa's Talking).

My technical stack spans JavaScript/TypeScript, Python, and Java, with frontend expertise in React, Next.js, and React Native, and backend proficiency in Node.js, Django, Express, and Spring Boot. I work with PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, and MySQL, and utilise Docker, Git, and CI/CD pipelines in my development workflow.

I've successfully published applications to production (Google Play Store), created and released open-source tools (jenga-api-client SDK on PyPI), and actively contribute to Apache Fineract with merged pull requests addressing API improvements and system enhancements. I'm comfortable working independently or collaboratively, write clean maintainable code, and consistently deliver solutions that exceed client expectations whilst improving operational efficiency.

Approximate rate: KSh 300 per hour

Experience

I have over two years of professional software development experience, primarily gained at Cloudoon (Truehost Kenya) from April 2024 to August 2025, where I worked on enterprise-level solutions across multiple platforms.

As the sole developer and maintainer of the Jisort microfinance platform built on Apache Fineract, I extended the core banking system with custom features including loan products, account configurations, and client management workflows. I integrated critical third-party services such as M-Pesa Daraja API for mobile money transactions, Equity Jenga API for banking operations, and Africa's Talking for SMS notifications. I also developed financial reports in Pentaho and created a Python SDK (jenga-api-client) published to PyPI.

On the Olitt Site Builder Platform, I developed key features including Mautic marketing integrations, Google Analytics integration, and custom templates. I took over the React Native mobile app development, completed it, and successfully published it to the Google Play Store.

Prior to Cloudoon, I worked as an AI Trainer at SamaSource Kenya (August–December 2023), contributing to machine learning improvements through data annotation and quality assurance.

As a Freelance Web Developer for Honda Motorcycles Kenya Limited (February–May 2023), I designed and developed a bespoke logistics management system that streamlined operations, enabling real-time inventory tracking and order processing.

Currently, I actively contribute to Apache Fineract open source project with multiple merged pull requests addressing API improvements, bug fixes, and system enhancements, collaborating with international contributors on enterprise-level workflows.

Education

I have a bachelors degree in Information Technology from Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology which has given me the tools necessary to be in this profession.
