What I Do Differently

I specialize in the projects others consider impossible: large-scale, complex, chaotic national infrastructure that needs to work for millions of people—delivered at speed.

I Walk Into Chaos and Create Order

My specialty is taking big, messy, national-scale projects that are completely stuck—legacy systems, paper-based processes, failed initiatives—and transforming them into modern, working digital infrastructure. Fast.

Speed Is My Competitive Advantage

Where others plan for years, I ship in months. Agricultural systems in 6 months. Six social security schemes in 2.5 years. This isn't cutting corners—it's understanding what matters and executing with precision.

I Design, Architect, and Ship

I'm not a consultant who writes reports. I architect the entire system, design the data models, build the teams, participate in development, and ship working solutions. End-to-end ownership from vision to production.

Business Value, Not Just Technology

I think in terms of ROI, operational efficiency, and measurable outcomes. Technology is the means, not the end. Every system I build is designed to deliver concrete business value.

"I specialize in large-scale infrastructure projects that other organizations consider too complex or time-consuming. My track record shows measurable results at national scale."

Proven Track Record at National Scale

Real projects. Real impact. Serving millions of people across multiple critical sectors.

HEALTHCARE • 2020-PRESENT • RWANDA SOCIAL SECURITY BOARD

National Medical Insurance Infrastructure

2.5 years development • 13.8M citizens • 6 schemes digitized • Live in production

The Challenge

Walked into a completely paper-based system. 70,000 daily medical verifications done manually. 4 months to process 1 month of claims. Thousands of workers drowning in paperwork. The entire system was collapsing under its own weight.

What I Delivered

Architected and shipped the Intelligent Health Benefits Platform from scratch. Complete digital transformation: contribution collection, claims processing, provider management, fraud detection, AI-powered verification. 100% paperless.

Why This Matters

Built the data infrastructure that enables AI-powered fraud detection, policy enforcement that was previously impossible, and real-time healthcare intelligence at national scale. Not just faster processing—fundamentally new capabilities.

Operational Outcomes
  • End-to-end digital journey for members, providers, and government auditors.
  • Automated payment cycles with treasury integration and zero paper reconciliations.
  • Nationwide visibility on utilization, cost trends, and health outcomes.

National Contribution & Compliance Infrastructure

Nationwide compliance infrastructure • All employers • Live & verified

The Compliance Crisis

Inherited an outsourced, decade-old platform with zero control of the core codebase. Employers emailed Excel sheets and queued at RSSB branches to submit declarations.

No automated cross-checks existed between pension, health insurance, maternity, and occupational schemes. Revenue leaked every month, arrears went undetected, and compliance teams had no real-time picture of who had paid what.

What I Architected

Built a full-stack ecosystem with complete technology ownership: Ishema (unified contribution engine), Imisanzu (employee self-service portal)

Delivered a unified declarations ledger, automated reconciliation against treasury systems, API integrations for payroll vendors, and distributed compliance verification using employees as real-time validation nodes.

The Architectural Innovation

When employers file declarations, the system triggers automated notifications to millions of employees: "Your employer declared you're getting paid $X." Employees flag discrepancies in real-time.

Distributed compliance verification at national scale. Millions of validation nodes, no manual audit backlog, and exceptions surfaced within hours instead of quarters.

Compliance Outcomes

  • Automated reconciliation across pension, health insurance, maternity, occupational hazards, community-based health, and voluntary schemes.
  • Exception handling workflows that surface arrears, underpayments, and late filings in real-time.
  • APIs for banks, payroll vendors, and government agencies ensuring zero manual data re-entry.
  • Analytics dashboards for leadership with nationwide visibility on compliance coverage.

Live Platforms

All three platforms are live in production, publicly accessible, and part of the national compliance ecosystem.

AGRICULTURE • 2022 • NATIONAL SCALE

Agricultural Management System

6-month development cycle • Production deployment achieved

The Challenge

Complete chaos. No working system. Farmers not properly registered. Subsidies not tracked. No data on anything. Needed a working solution immediately.

What I Delivered

Designed and shipped complete agricultural management infrastructure in 6 months. Farmer registration, subsidy distribution, crop tracking, land management. From zero to production in half a year.

  • Central farmer registry with biometric-ready IDs, household mapping, and cooperative linkage.
  • Voucher and subsidy engine synchronised with agro-dealers and mobile money providers.
  • Season planning, input forecasting, and field monitoring dashboards for district teams.

Key Achievement

Speed of Execution

Most agricultural systems take 2-3 years to deploy. I delivered in 6 months because I understood what was critical, designed for scalability from day one, and executed without getting lost in over-engineering. Launch included nationwide onboarding playbooks, offline-first field agent tools, and phased rollout across all districts.
