Summary
Abel Oboth is a full-stack Software Engineer with eight years of experience building JavaScript/TypeScript applications across frontend, backend and mobile, currently contributing at Uganda Revenue Authority while freelancing through Kanzu Code. He has shipped MERN-stack solutions, React-based frontends with Redux, and Node/Express services backed by MySQL and MongoDB, and he’s comfortable deploying and developing in Linux environments. Early work on Mendix widgets kickstarted a long-running focus on JavaScript that now spans Prisma, React Hooks, and containerized cloud workflows. Uncommonly for a web developer, Abel pairs application engineering with practical offensive security skills—he actively practices CTFs and uses tools like Burp Suite, nmap and Metasploit to drive secure-by-design development. He brings a pragmatic, agile mindset to projects, translating UI/UX designs into production-ready interfaces while prioritizing software security and data integrity.
