About

Billy Mwangi

Billy Mwangi

AI Architect & Software Engineer, Nairobi

I build AI-powered systems and full-stack products for African businesses. With three years of Python and a year specialising in backend architecture, I focus on systems that are reliable, fast, and built for real constraints: offline-capable, low-bandwidth, and cost-conscious.

I founded Hekima Labs to bring intelligent automation to SMEs across the continent. My stack spans FastAPI, Django, React, React Native, and Next.js, whatever the problem needs.
