I build deterministic, high-performance systems in Rust β from visual code generators to low-latency AI pipelines. I specialize in the Rust ecosystem (Axum, Actix, SeaORM, Dioxus, Tokio) and bridging performance-critical systems with scalable cloud infrastructure.
Based in Nairobi, Kenya Β· Open to remote opportunities worldwide
π§ Immortal Engine v2.0 (S-Arch-P) β A desktop visual code generator in Rust that produces production-ready Axum backends from structured .ieng specifications. Deterministic AI schema generation, drag-and-drop entity design, automated SQL migrations, and 500+ tests ensuring engine integrity.
π‘οΈ Zeroed β A systems-level platform in Rust for automated deployment and real-time server protection. Policy-driven security engine with automated IP blacklisting, Prometheus-based observability, and zero-downtime deployments.

|---|---|---|
| Technical Lead | PayServe | Rust + FastAPI microservices, memory-safe ETL pipelines, payment gateway integrations |
| AI/Backend Engineer | Turing | LLM benchmarking, evaluation frameworks, model reliability engineering |
| AI Engineer (SFT) | Mercor | Supervised fine-tuning, high-quality training dataset curation |
| Backend Developer | Freshly Solutions | Django/FastAPI services, database optimization, high-availability systems |
I pioneer spec-driven development β leveraging Rust's type safety to replace LLM hallucinations with verified, generated code. Every system I build prioritizes correctness at compile time, zero-cost abstractions, and production-grade reliability.
Let's build something fast, safe, and correct.
