Need a developer who ships — not one who disappears? I'm Allan, a full-stack developer and DevOps engineer based in Nairobi with 10+ years of experience building and deploying production software for organizations including Care International, UNHCR/FilmAid, Intel, Kenya Red Cross, and the Kenya Ministry of Health. I've delivered 50+ projects across healthcare, education, fintech, humanitarian, and enterprise — and I have references from Google, AWS, Mastercard, Dropbox, and Red Cross to back it up. What I Build: → Full-stack web applications (Python/Django/Flask, Node.js/Express/React, PHP/Laravel) → AI-powered tools and LLM integrations (OpenAI, Claude/Anthropic, RAG systems, conversational AI) → Cloud infrastructure and DevOps pipelines (AWS, Azure, GCP, Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform) → Mobile payment integrations (M-Pesa, Stripe, payment gateways) → MVP prototypes — concept to deployed product in 2–3 weeks → IVR systems, SaaS platforms, monitoring dashboards, and data pipelines What Sets Me Apart: ✅ I ship fast. I won the Dropbox/HelloSign hackathon by building an AI-powered contract generator in under 72 hours. I bring that same urgency to every client project. ✅ I've built for real-world impact. My IVR system serves thousands of refugees in Kakuma Camp through UNHCR. My M&E platform tracks humanitarian outcomes across Somalia for Care International. These aren't toy projects — they're production systems people depend on. ✅ I think like a product manager, not just a coder. With product management skills in user research, wireframing, data analytics, and stakeholder communication, I don't just write code — I help you build the right thing. I'll challenge your assumptions, suggest better approaches, and make sure what we build actually solves the problem. ✅ I handle the full stack and the infrastructure. Frontend, backend, database, cloud deployment, CI/CD, monitoring — I deliver the complete package. No need to hire three people when one can do it all. ✅ I communicate clearly and consistently. You'll get regular updates, clean documentation, and zero surprises. I've worked with international teams across time zones (US, Europe, East Africa) and I understand that trust is built through transparency. Recent Highlights: • Built AI-powered platforms integrating OpenAI and Anthropic APIs for automated content generation and intelligent learning systems • Developed M-Pesa-integrated SaaS platforms serving the East African market • Delivered cloud-native applications on AWS and Azure with full DevOps pipelines (Docker, CI/CD, Terraform) • Multiple international hackathon finalist and winner Education: BSc Computer Technology — JKUAT (Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology) Let's talk about what you're building.
