AI Agent & Full-Stack Engineer | Claude Code, MCP, Next.js, Expo

I build AI products end to end for founders: agent workflows, MCP servers, Next.js + Supabase SaaS, and Expo / SwiftUI apps that get through App Store review. Top Rated Plus, 100% Job Success, $200K+ earned and 9,500+ hours on Upwork. I'm an independent engineer, not an agency, and I don't subcontract. FIXED-PRICE PROJECTS I DO BEST - AI agent & MCP integrations: Claude / OpenAI tool calling, custom MCP servers, and agent skills for Claude Code and Codex. - Supabase backends: schema, RLS security audits, Edge Functions, auth migrations (Firebase or NextAuth to Supabase), and fixing migration drift. - Mobile launches: Expo / React Native builds, StoreKit and RevenueCat paywalls, and getting rejected apps approved on the App Store and Google Play. - Next.js SaaS: dashboards, customer portals, multistep forms, Stripe payments and WhatsApp integrations. - Rescuing "vibe coded" MVPs: taking a stuck Lovable, Bolt or Cursor repo and shipping it to production. WHAT I'VE SHIPPED (see my portfolio) - Khayalo: multi-tenant AI customer service for Southern African law firms, clinics and insurers (Next.js 15, Supabase, Vercel AI SDK, Claude). - Skillshed: a marketplace of 81 agent skills for Claude Code and Codex, scanned for prompt injection. - Atelier: a native macOS workspace for Claude Code and Codex (Swift, SwiftUI), signed and auto-updating. - AbletonMCP Extended: an MCP server with 38 tools that lets Claude produce in Ableton Live. - Migration Doctor, Lead Eng and DESIGN.md Builder: open-source agent skills and CLIs. - iOS apps under Studio 82 (Nurvy, Nomm, Ten-S) and Stubs on the App Store. - Freyt365: cross-border freight and diesel fintech with a WhatsApp AI assistant. HOW I WORK Claude Code is my daily tool, and I structure repos so AI-written code stays reviewable: strict TypeScript, CLAUDE.md context, tests (Vitest, Playwright) and CI on GitHub Actions. You get a short plan, a fixed price, a timeline and the biggest risk up front. Then you get shipped work with a readable PR and a Loom demo. HOW TO START Send a short brief or a 2-minute Loom. I'll reply within a few hours with a fixed quote and a plan, and I can usually start within 24 to 48 hours. Background: former CTO and co-founder of Farmhut Africa (an AI + WhatsApp farmer marketplace with about 300,000 users; Techstars; Hult Prize). Anzisha Prize Fellow 2021. MTN MoMo Hackathon finalist.
