Top SchoolFut Lutalo is a multidisciplinary software engineer, founder and research-minded technologist with 13 years of experience building products, consultancies and research prototypes across Africa. As founder and Chief Hacker at Nuchwezi he leads original R&D in web, mobile, embedded and data systems while also shipping client-facing solutions in edutech, fintech and analytics.

A pragmatic tinkerer and polymath, he often invents domain-specific languages and experimental platforms (e.g., Cwa Script and TEA) to extend what’s possible in constrained environments.
