Peace, I'm Jaha Naeem Gitonga, but you can call me Naeem. I am from Clinton, NC (born and raised). For all you recruiters out there, that means I do not need a work sponsorship to work in the USA, next question. I've led teams to deliver software, being responsible for guiding and overseeing the technical aspects of projects, collaborating with stakeholders and ensuring the team's adherence to best practices, as well as making key technical decisions.

More about me

I build enterprise web applications. I teach software engineering, DevOps, and mentor students in coding a boot camp with GTNG Foundation, where the focus is the JavaScript MERN stack, AWS and a few other technologies. Outside of coding, I do more art. Yeah that's right--programming a computer, building apps and websites is an art!

I enjoy designing applications, employing new technologies to create event driven systems. I am an author. I have written two books: Program Your Life, Rapid Back-End. I write tech articles here exploring various technologies that I know or am learning.

Here you will see some samples of my work. If you hover over the screencaptures you'll see info about the app. Click on Live site and you'll be able to play around with some stuff.
