Hi, I’m Vusi Loliwe, a systems developer with a passion for turning complex requirements into reliable software solutions. Over the years I’ve built and supported internal applications, managed databases, and integrated systems across departments, notably with Amatola Water and the Eastern Cape Office of the Premier. I enjoy collaborating with users and teams to deliver practical, user-friendly tools and robust software. I’m currently expanding my knowledge with UNISA’s Advanced Diploma in Information Resource Management, and I enjoy applying best practices in SDLC, testing, and end-user training. I’m always keen to learn new technologies and contribute to meaningful projects in government, utilities, and the wider IT space.
