Kabura Njenga

Software Engineer & Solutions Architect

I'm a software developer and U.S. Army Health Care Specialist with experience supporting business and technical operations, troubleshooting systems, and developing web and mobile applications in high-pressure environments. I'm skilled in Python, JavaScript, React.js, PHP, Android development, REST APIs, and system troubleshooting — combining engineering discipline with strong operational awareness.

I work independently with autonomy, resolve technical issues, support users, and improve workflows in mission-critical and customer-facing environments. My strong interest in IT infrastructure, network administration, system architecture, and business software drives architectural decision-making for scalable delivery.

My professional journey spans freelance software development, Android development at Dimite Technologies, and a software maintenance internship — all grounded in a commitment to building reliable, maintainable solutions that support real business operations.
