SIRO Jackson, Manifesting ideas
into Applications.
A software development engineer based in Nairobi with many years of manifesting ideas into apps — Flutter, Android, iOS, and Frontend. I took Britam's Financial Advisors app from the ground up to the App Store and Play Store, reducing onboarding clients to a paperless three-minute experience

about
About Siro.
I'm a software development engineer with over 7 years of experience shipping production software across native Android (Kotlin), native iOS (Swift), Flutter, and React — end-to-end, from backend to mobile to web.
At Britam, I took the Financial Advisor app from the concept it was to a live release on both the App Store and Play Store, then helped build the admin portal underwriters use to review policy apps alongside it. I led sprint planning and feature prioritization directly with business teams, so I'm as comfortable translating a stakeholder's goal into a technical plan as I am writing the code for it. Before that, I've shipped micro-transaction platforms across four African countries, revived stalled portals under tight deadlines, and kept two personal apps — a Swahili dictionary and a church hymn book — alive and evolving for years because people still use them.
If you're looking for someone to manifest your app idea—or save your sinking ship—I am your guy. I build high-quality mobile apps with Flutter, Kotlin on Android, or Swift on iOS.
For modern web apps or front-end development, I deliver fast, scalable solutions with Next.js, backed by Supabase for backend services. When a full-stack solution is needed, Laravel is my framework of choice for building secure, reliable, and maintainable apps.
Whether you're starting from scratch, adding new features, or fixing an existing codebase, I can help turn your vision into a polished, production-ready product.
