Senior🎓
Top SchoolKipyegon Ng'eno is a Product and Data Systems Specialist with 11 years of experience building scalable, data-driven platforms that combine product management, data engineering, and geospatial analytics. He has led end-to-end development of humanitarian and sustainability targeting systems—designing ETL pipelines, geospatial APIs, and map-centric interfaces that turn satellite, socio-economic and environmental data into operational decision tools. Comfortable across cloud stacks (AWS/Azure/GCP) and tools like dbt, Airflow, Snowflake, PostGIS and FastAPI, he bridges technical execution with stakeholder-aligned roadmaps and agile delivery. His work at FAO and UNMISS shows a knack for applying GIS and AI to crisis detection and resource allocation, while TelelBirds highlights his interest in commercializing domain-specific analytics for agriculture. Notably, he builds reproducible automated geoprocessing pipelines integrating Rasterio, GDAL and QGIS Server to serve non-technical users with high-performance spatial insights. Based in Nairobi, he blends field-oriented problem framing with production-grade systems to deliver measurable impact in climate resilience, urban systems and digital agriculture.
