Featured work

Things I've shipped

PropTech SaaS

rentiQ

Built rentiQ as the system of record for rental money. Payments arrive either automatically through the client's own M-Pesa Paybill or by hand from a caretaker with a cash box, and both go through one allocation engine that applies them to the right invoices in the right order, flags anything ambiguous for a two-click resolution, and leaves an audit trail. Around that core sit the operations of a rental business: buildings and units, lease lifecycles, maintenance tickets, and reporting written for the Kenyan market first. It is Kimcard Technologies' own product, and it is live.

Enterprise Platform

Aviation Security Management Platform

Built a unified web platform that digitised every aspect of airside security management: real-time incident reporting with geo-tagging, automated shift scheduling with coverage gap detection, a live operations dashboard for supervisors, and an audit trail that generates compliance reports on demand.

About

David Kimani

Hi, I'm David.

I'm a full-stack engineer based in Nairobi, building web products with Vue, Nuxt, and Laravel. I care about the craft: fast, accessible, well-structured software. I share what I learn as I go. Right now I'm turning seven years of shipping into Laravel and Vue starter kits, and writing honestly about the work.
