I design and build scalable software systems, AI-powered platforms, and enterprise infrastructure, with a strong focus on backend architecture, distributed systems, procurement, logistics, and operational software.

My work spans Python, FastAPI, TypeScript, NestJS, PostgreSQL, Redis, distributed architectures, cloud infrastructure, and modern AI systems.

🌍 Building technology across the DRC, Europe, North America, and Australia.

• 🚀 Currently Building: Merite — an intelligent procurement and enterprise operations platform designed to automate purchasing, approvals, supplier workflows, inventory, and business processes.

• 🧠 Engineering Focus: Backend architecture, distributed systems, API design, real-time systems, data-intensive applications, AI engineering, and scalable infrastructure.

• 🐍 Python: Building high-performance backend services and AI/data systems with Python, FastAPI, asyncio, Pydantic, SQLAlchemy, PostgreSQL, and asynchronous architectures.

• 🤖 AI Engineering: LLM integrations, structured generation, embeddings, vector search, retrieval systems, AI agents, and production AI workflows using platforms such as OpenAI and Anthropic.

• 🏗️ Domain Expertise: Procurement, logistics, enterprise workflows, inventory management, approval systems, and business process automation.

• 📱 Products: Developer of Pepo Bêta, a mobility platform designed for the DRC market.

• 🌍 Engineering Philosophy: Build systems that are maintainable today, scalable tomorrow, and understandable by the engineers who inherit them.

• 🧠 Beyond Engineering: History, philosophy — particularly Plato and Spinoza — geopolitics, science, and space exploration.
