The Narrative

I sit at the intersection of hardware precision and software intelligence. Currently completing my degree in Electrical and Electronics Engineering at the University of Nairobi, I have spent the last four years architecting high-performance digital solutions that solve tangible African challenges.

My journey began in 2022, fueled by a curiosity to understand not just how code runs, but how machines think. This dual focus—combining the logic of circuit analysis with the scalability of modern software—led me to co-found DuniAfrika Group. As the Lead Software Architect, I build systems that are not only robust and scalable but socially impactful.

In 2025, my team and I secured the Grand Prize at the Call for Code Global Challenge for "Linda," an AI-powered safety assistant designed to protect vulnerable workers. This achievement underscores my core philosophy: technology reaches its highest potential when it is used to preserve life and dignity.

Whether I am designing anomaly detection models for fraud prevention, soldering embedded systems for IoT applications, or architecting backend infrastructure, my goal remains the same: to build the future, one circuit and one line of code at a time.

The Process

Discovery

Understanding your constraints, users, and goals. We map the problem space and identify technical and business requirements before writing a single line of code.

Strategy

Architecture and technology choices. I design systems that scale, stay maintainable, and fit your team's capacity. From APIs to data models to deployment pipelines.

Design

Interfaces and interactions. Clean, accessible UIs that prioritize clarity and performance. I work closely with product and users to iterate quickly.

Develop

Execution with precision. Backend services, frontend apps, embedded logic, or ML pipelines—built with tested, documented, and deployable code.

Testimonials

Robert's ability to bridge hardware and software is rare. He delivered a system that not only works—it scales.
