Hi, I'm Alvin Mwakai
A Software engineer consultant based in Kenya. I help companies build better web applications and to improve their knowledge, architect systems, and deliver effective solutions.
My expertise is in backend technologies like PHP, Laravel, and WordPress, alongside modern JavaScript frameworks including Vue.js, Nuxt.js, React, Next.js, and Alpine.js, allowing me to deliver solutions that clients trust.
About Me
I have 2 years of experience building software for companies in Kenya and the Faroe Islands. Throughout my career, I've worked on diverse projects including a complete e-commerce platform, online food ordering applications, and large-scale complex web applications using WordPress, Laravel, Vue.js, React, vanilla PHP and JavaScript, and Alpine.js.
My experience spans both backend and frontend development, with a focus on security enhancements, performance optimization, and delivering comprehensive solutions that meet business needs and exceed client expectations. I'm known for being a quick learner and I've rapidly expanded my skillset from PHP into modern JavaScript frameworks and development tools, adapting to new technologies as projects demand.
Working across different continents has honed my ability to collaborate effectively in remote environments and work independently without close supervision. I have a strong eye for detail and take pride in delivering polished, production ready code that not only works well but is also maintainable and scalable.
I'm open to new opportunities where I can contribute my skills and continue growing as a developer. Let's connect if you're working on something interesting!
