I'm Jack
a Software Engineer
I've spent 4+ years building production software across PHP, Python/Django, and React/TypeScript. I'm Co-founder & Lead Engineer at BinByte Engineering, where I try to liaise with SMEs as their software partner, as I find my footing around the tech world.
About Me
( 01 )
I build software because I believe technology should leave people better off than it found them, even if that just means one stranger's day getting a little easier. I specialize in multi-tenant SaaS architecture and East Africa-facing infrastructure, including M-PESA Daraja and Africa's Talking integrations. I'm currently Lead Engineer and Co-founder at BinByte Engineering, where I split my time between backend architecture, product direction, and technical delivery across a portfolio of East Africa-focused products.
