Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolPhilip Kalela is a full-stack software engineer based in Nairobi with 8 years of experience building cross-platform mobile apps and backend systems, primarily using Spring Boot and Flutter/Dart. He combines hands-on expertise in Java/Kotlin Android, Unity/C# game prototyping, and cloud/DevOps with Docker and AWS to deliver end-to-end solutions for fintech and consumer products. Philip has led Flutter teams and technical delivery for remote projects, maintained Spring Boot + React systems in production, and contributed to health-focused game therapy and indie game prototypes. Equally comfortable shaping architecture or shipping UI, he balances pragmatic engineering with a curiosity for game design and user-centered experiences. An appetite for tough engineering challenges—and for nyama choma and a cold beer—keeps him grounded and collaborative.
