Senior🎓
Top SchoolKenneth Thuku is a pragmatic software engineer based in Nairobi with 11 years of experience building and operating production systems across startups and NGOs. He has shipped backend services, analytics dashboards, SMS middleware and CI/CD automation while working with stacks that include Python, Java, Dart, Docker and cloud platforms like GCP and AWS. Comfortable in both feature development and site reliability, he routinely handles monitoring, incident response and postmortems in addition to mentoring junior engineers. Known for quickly learning new technologies and adapting to changing environments, he pairs hands-on coding with clear documentation and collaboration across product and ops teams. An often overlooked strength is his cross-domain experience—from supply-chain and distribution platforms to large-scale SMS systems—which gives him a practical, systems-minded view of engineering tradeoffs.
