Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMoses Mutesasira is a Lead Developer and senior full‑stack engineer with 8+ years focused on digital health, driving core open-source global goods like OpenMRS, OpenELIS and OpenHIM while applying OpenHIE architectures and FHIR. He combines backend Java/Spring expertise—evident in OpenELIS and OpenMRS REST contributions—with front‑end work such as UI dashboard widgets and error‑handling enhancements. At the University of Washington he’s contributed to FHIR data pipelines, authored implementation guides, led QA and CI/CD efforts, and helped migrate major EMR deployments to OpenMRS 3.x. As Google Summer of Code administrator and OpenMRS fellow/mentor he blends hands‑on coding with community leadership and developer training. Notably, his open‑source impact spans both API-level improvements (DrugResource, OrderGroupResource) and practical lab systems integrations, reflecting uncommon depth across interoperability, testing, and deployment. Based in Kampala, he’s pragmatic about production reliability while continually advancing interoperability in low‑resource health systems.
