I build real-world software systems, from computer vision on edge devices to production web platforms, out of Harare, Zimbabwe.
Four practical disciplines. Every service backed by real shipped work.
End-to-end web platforms with real payments, auth, and production deployment.
Distributed systems, embedded devices, IoT, edge compute. Built to survive the real world.
Object detection, biomass estimation, custom metrics, tuned for low-resource deployment.
LLM integration, intelligent automation, decision-support tools that actually ship.
One flagship edge-AI instrument in active build, one live transacting platform, one lead-gen site, and this portfolio itself.
Late-stage prototype · Pilot 2026
Closed-loop AI instrument for African pond aquaculture. An overhead AI Camera and a Raspberry Pi 5 with a Hailo NPU detect fish, measure them against an auto-calibrated reference, estimate whole-pond biomass with honest confidence intervals, and drive an integrated auger feeder to dispense a precision dose. Runs entirely on the device. Being industrialised for pilot deployment in 2026.
steadyhandscatering.com · BATA Club
Full-stack catering platform with Paynow payment integration, online ordering, and WhatsApp communication funnel. Live, transacting, and deployed on Vercel.
fishtech.co.zw · Lead-gen platform
Marketing site for aquaculture consultancy. Optimized for Zimbabwean bandwidth. WhatsApp-first conversion funnel.

Final-year Computer Science student at NUST with over two years of shipping software that survives contact with the real world. I also know servers, networks, infrastructure, IT governance, SAP and organisational network management.
I care about real problems people actually feel. And my patriotic side isn't subtle about it, I want Zimbabwean and African problems solved, and solved well enough that the gap to first-world countries stops being taken for granted.
Twelve months inside a live enterprise data centre ecosystem. Hands-on across the full stack of an institutional IT operation. Servers, networking, ERP, authentication, communications, and end-user services, all integrated and interdependent.
Real exposure to system maintenance, downtime sensitivity, user support, and IT governance. The layer most software work sits on top of without ever seeing. Transfers directly into cloud, DevOps, cybersecurity, systems engineering, and backend infrastructure.
Open to remote engineering roles, contract work, and select Zimbabwean client projects. WhatsApp is the fastest way to reach me. Email and the form below also work.
