Software Engineer in Training @ Zone 01 | Open Source Contributor @ Btrust | Full-Stack & DevOps
I am a passionate Software Engineer based in Kenya (Kisumu / Nairobi), currently leveling up my skills through the rigorous, peer-to-peer curriculum at Zone01 Kisumu. I thrive in environments that challenge me to think critically, solve complex problems, and write clean, maintainable code.
Beyond my coursework, I am an active Open Source Contributor with Btrust Builders, where I collaborate with global developers to build meaningful tools for the decentralized web. I have a deep interest in backend architecture, containerization, and the Bitcoin/Nostr ecosystems.
These projects were built under the strict peer-review and auditing standards of the Zone01 (42 Network) curriculum. They emphasize algorithmic efficiency, clean code, and production-ready practices.
- π³ ASCII Art Web Dockerize: A containerized Go web application featuring a RESTful API, multi-stage Docker builds for minimal image size, embedded assets, and comprehensive unit testing. (Go, Docker, REST API, Unit Testing)
- π Go Reloaded: Advanced text manipulation and processing engine built from scratch, focusing on core Go concepts, pointers, and algorithmic efficiency. (Go)
- π Git Mastery: A dedicated repository documenting my journey mastering advanced version control, complex branching strategies, merge conflict resolution, and collaborative workflows. (Git, Shell)
Projects driven by my personal interests in open-source, decentralized tech, and web development.
- π Btrust Open Source Contributions: Collaborative open-source project focusing on building tools and infrastructure for the Bitcoin and Nostr ecosystems. (Open Source, Collaboration)
- π‘ [Personal Web & Data Projects]: (Coming Soon!) Currently designing personal web applications and data analysis tools to solve everyday problems. (React, Node.js, Python)
I am a firm believer in continuous growth. Right now, I am expanding my expertise in:
- π³ Advanced DevOps: Multi-stage Docker builds, CI/CD pipelines, and container orchestration.
- 𦫠Advanced Go: Concurrency patterns, RESTful API design, and comprehensive unit testing.
- β‘ Decentralized Tech: Deep diving into Bitcoin protocols, Nostr, and open-source ecosystem contributions.
I'm always open to collaborating on open-source projects, discussing backend architecture, or chatting about Linux and Bitcoin!
