Vincent Karuri is a Senior Software Engineer with eight years’ experience building product-focused software and hardware-integrated solutions across startups and Microsoft. He progressed from internships in IoT and product engineering to shipping production systems at Ona Data and scaling features as Software Engineer II before joining Microsoft as a senior engineer. Comfortable across firmware-adjacent hardware work and full-stack software, he brings a pragmatic product mindset to technical implementation and delivery. Based in Nairobi, he blends Princeton-trained electrical engineering fundamentals with hands-on cloud and product engineering practice. Colleagues would describe him as someone who bridges product goals and engineering trade-offs, often surfacing hardware constraints early to avoid costly rework. He has a track record of moving from prototypes to maintainable production systems in resource-constrained environments.
