Software Developer
Evolve Africa Strategic

Mar 2021 – Present

Delivered complex UI and dashboard features from requirements through implementation to production, translating product needs into responsive, user-focused workflows.

Pickability Check (Hoplite 37)
Three.js/WebGL, Rapier 3D, glTF

Built an experimental CAD-based robotic bin-picking feasibility tool that estimates occlusion, approximate collisions, and grasp-orientation constraints using bounding-box geometric queries.

CASE STUDY GITHUB ↗

PrecisionCore (speculative case study)
TypeScript, Express, Supabase Auth, Prometheus/Grafana/Loki

Designed a connected supplier-operations concept spanning a corporate website, partner portal, RFQ/PPAP/quality workflows, permissions, shared API, and observability; clearly a case study, not a production client system.
