Hello, I am ...
Justine Harmon
I build things from "what if we..." to "okay, it's live."
About Me
I'm a full-stack engineer and technical product manager in Nairobi. I build production web systems from the first requirements to the deployed product, along with the AI-assisted workflows that sit next to them.
I care about clean code, honest documentation and software people can use without a manual. My work spans code, design, UX, cloud and applied AI.
