Hi, I'm Peter.

Senior Android Engineer | Product Builder | Founder

I’m a Senior Android Engineer and product-minded software builder based in Nairobi. I started in web technologies, later specialized in Android, and now build software across mobile products, SaaS tools, and founder-led ventures.

I enjoy building products that solve real operational problems — from Android experiences used at scale to founder-led software platforms designed for real business use.

💼 Career

  • Senior Android Engineer with experience building production software across fintech, supply chain, insurance, and service platforms
  • Founder of MotiAutoCare, a garage operations platform for automotive businesses
  • Experienced in Android engineering, backend integrations, experimentation, product execution, and AI-assisted workflows

🚀 Currently Building

  • MotiAutoCare — Garage operations software for managing jobs, quotations, invoices, payments, inventory, customer records, and reporting
  • Founder-led products focused on solving practical problems with scalable software
  • Systems that combine strong engineering, product thinking, and real-world utility

Tech Stack 💻 (What I Work With)

Core
Mobile & Architecture
Web & Frontend Foundations
Backend, BaaS & Product Tooling
Builder Toolkit

🧠 What I Focus On

  • Android Engineering — Kotlin, Jetpack Compose, clean architecture, performance, modularization, experimentation
  • Product Execution — analytics, A/B testing, feature delivery, telemetry, production quality
  • Web & Cross-Stack Foundations — Angular, Vue.js, JavaScript, TypeScript, HTML, CSS
  • Backend & Tooling — APIs, Firebase, Supabase, CI/CD, GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps
  • AI-Assisted Development — using modern AI tools to accelerate research, prototyping, iteration, and delivery

🎯 Highlights

  • Built Android features used by 1.5M+ daily users across multiple African markets
  • Improved app performance for low-end devices and production reliability in real-world environments
  • Built and launched MotiAutoCare, a live B2B software product for automotive businesses
  • Maintained a 100% Upwork JSS while delivering software for global clients

🎉 A bit more about me

  • I enjoy building useful software around real operational problems
  • I care about clean execution, product thinking, and practical systems
  • I enjoy mentoring, collaborating, and continuously improving as both an engineer and builder
