Brian Ngugi
I am a student of Software Engineering at Kirinyaga University with particular interest in backend and frontend development, AI-driven productivity, and software design. I major in developing scalable and user-friendly applications with technologies like Python, Django, JavaScript, React, TypeScript, MySQL, and PostgreSQL. I am presently a contract Project Manager, where I deliver projects, manage teams, and oversee successful project execution. I acquired expertise in agile methodologies, UI/UX design, API integration, version control with Git and GitHub through education and practical experience. I have also completed specialized courses in AI Career Essentials, Professional Foundations, ALX Backend Web Development and am presently completing a short course in Frontend Web Development at PLP Academy. These courses have all enabled me to be proficient in using AI tools for productivity, collaboration, and software solutions. Additionally, I have developed problem-solving abilities through working on real-world projects, teamwork, and open-source projects. My software design, analysis, and optimization skills allow me to pick up new technologies quickly. I am keen to apply innovation and technology to address real problems, and I am always ready to learn and discover new developments in software development.
