I enjoy turning a difficult business problem into software that people can use with confidence.
I'm a technical product manager and forward deployed engineer based in Lusaka, Zambia. I work where product decisions meet implementation, from understanding a user's problem and setting priorities to building, testing and releasing the software.
Forward deployed engineering means working directly with the people who use a system. I learn their workflow, build around its constraints, connect the software to their existing tools and stay through training and support. I judge the result by whether people can use it and whether it solves the original problem.
Today I'm the consulting technical lead for FigureFlow AB, a Sweden-based company building a financial SaaS platform used internationally. I work across Python, Django, PostgreSQL, Vue and TypeScript, connecting accounting data, reconciliation, reporting and AI-assisted workflows, with permissions, review steps and traceable actions.
In 2015 I founded ONBRD Solutions in Lusaka, where I spent years working directly with clients: defining requirements, preparing mockups, building applications and managing delivery, through quality assurance, security reviews, documentation, training and support after handover.
I write regularly about product decisions, technology, finance and policy in Zambia. I'm open to product advisory, embedded delivery and long-term contracts with teams in Zambia and abroad.
