With a passion for software development and a commitment to excellence, I am a dedicated professional eager to apply my extensive experience to create innovative solutions tailored to my clients' unique needs. As a Software Developer, I have honed my skills through a series of diverse roles and projects, solidifying my expertise in designing, testing, and maintaining software applications.

During my tenure at Global Tech Network, I contributed to the development and maintenance of in-house web applications, leveraging technologies like PHP, Laravel, JavaScript, and HTML/CSS. Collaborating with a team of three developers, I actively participated in brainstorming sessions and translated ideas into fully functional web apps, fostering creativity and teamwork.

My role at BreezeTech Systems Ltd in Nairobi has been particularly impactful. Through crafting RESTful APIs using Laravel, I facilitated seamless communication between JavaScript front-ends and dynamic user inputs, effectively managing a concurrent user base of over 5,000. My collaboration with a fellow developer led to the implementation of RESTful APIs and internal tool codes, resulting in a 15% increase in reporting speed and saving employees significant labor hours each month.

I pride myself on delivering exceptional front-end applications, and my work at HNC Advocates reflects this commitment. I diagnosed performance bottlenecks, enhancing the speed and robustness of database management systems. Rigorous testing and documentation further streamlined software efficiency, highlighting my proficiency in JavaScript (Node & Vue), HTML/CSS, PHP (Laravel), and MySQL.

During my freelancing journey from July 2019 to April 2021, I demonstrated versatility by developing an Ethereum Blockchain-based distributed balloting application, emphasizing my adeptness in JavaScript, HTML/CSS, and Solidity. Additionally, I crafted algorithms and programs to navigate financial instruments, using tools like MQL4, MQL5, and Python, and engineered a data generator utilizing Laravel and VueJS.

My expertise extends beyond coding as evidenced by my role as a DevOps Consultant at Zuru Utilities & Logistics. Collaborating with a team, I offered consulting services for a mobile delivery app, employing tools like Django, Laravel, and VueJS. In my earlier years, as a System Engineer at CellFam Ltd, I created a hybrid mobile app for agricultural experts using Node, Ionic, HTML/CSS, and AngularJS, and designed RESTful APIs for seamless data integration.

My journey began with an internship at Kenya Institute of Highways and Building Technology, where I documented, tested, and maintained various hardware, software, and networking resources. This experience cultivated my foundational understanding of ICT principles.

In conclusion, I am a dynamic Software Developer and IT professional who thrives on solving complex challenges and crafting tailored software solutions. My diverse experiences have enriched my technical capabilities and nurtured a deep appreciation for teamwork, innovation, and efficiency. I am excited to continue leveraging my skills to deliver impactful solutions in the ever-evolving landscape of software development.
