About
I am a results-driven Senior Software Engineer and AI specialist based in Nairobi, Kenya, with over 8 years of experience building scalable backend systems, machine learning pipelines, and AI-powered platforms. I have a proven track record in data annotation, AI model training and fine-tuning, and deploying production-grade inference services with up to 99.8% uptime.
I have hands-on experience in data preprocessing, feature engineering, and training deep learning models across NLP, computer vision, and generative AI domains — including model fine-tuning using LoRA and building retrieval-augmented generation systems that improved precision by 27%. My background in data classification, ETL pipelines, and predictive modeling makes me a strong contributor to AI training workflows and annotation quality assurance.
With a Master of Science in Computer Science from Northeastern University and experience across remote-first engineering teams, I bring both technical depth and strong collaboration skills to every project I take on.
