About

I’m Claire Kimani, a software engineer who ships production end-to-end systems, from secure back-end services to user-friendly front ends. I’ve built and maintained high-traffic APIs and multi-tenant platforms, including real-time dispatch and billing workflows, with a strong focus on authentication, authorization, auditing, and data safety.

I also enjoy turning complex requirements into reliable products—whether integrating payment and live fundraising flows, building RAG document assistants that answer only from retrieved sources, or creating responsive e-commerce experiences. I work comfortably across Python, FastAPI, Flask, PostgreSQL (including PostGIS/pgvector), React, TypeScript, and modern cloud/deployment tooling, and I love collaborating in Agile teams while writing thorough tests and documentation.

Hope Connect is a digital platform built for an NGO to raise funds and engage donors effectively. The organization wanted a modern solution that would allow them to reach a wider audience, streamline donations, and showcase their ongoing impact in real-time.

The goal was simple yet powerful: connect generosity with need by making it easy for the public and donors to support projects directly.
