Hi, my name is

Own the full hardware product portfolio at Kofa, including swap stations, batteries, two-wheel vehicle platforms, and docking infrastructure. Direct execution across engineering, operations, supply chain, and external supplier partners in Kenya and Ghana.

• Own New Product Introduction for the next-generation docking hub, now in design and pre-launch. Manage design release, supplier qualification, and build readiness.
• Architect the next-generation battery platform through parallel dual-sourcing across two qualified assemblers and LFP and LMFP cell chemistries, targeting a 20% unit-cost reduction (approximately $150 per battery) and a 67% cycle-life increase from 1,500 to 2,500 cycles.
• Led the phased rollout of new powertrain-controller firmware across approximately 300 commercial e-motorcycles in Ghana, delivering a 25% range increase and three use-case-tuned operating modes.
• Lead a continuous-improvement programme across the swap-station network, spanning electrical safety, structural and mechanical integrity, fire and flood safety, connectivity, maintenance operations, and feedback into next-generation hardware design.

Led installation, commissioning, and operations of Africa's first Direct Air Capture pilot plant at Lake Elementaita, Kenya, rated at 500 tonnes of CO₂ removal per year. Achieved first CO₂ capture two months after project kickoff, then led capacity and stress-testing campaigns that generated operational data and engineering learnings for commercial-scale plant development.

• Took over the commercial-scale Direct Air Capture plant programme, rated at 30,000 tonnes of CO₂ removal per year with a containerised modular architecture, at the Design Verification Test (DVT) gate. Drove the plant through Production Verification Test (PVT) to a tested, deployment-ready state at handover.
• Designed the plant-wide instrumentation network, including instrumentation cabinetry and harness architecture across the complete Direct Air Capture stack. Designed and built eight automation cabinets for the commercial plant.

Took over end-to-end product development across Roam's full portfolio, including electric motorcycles, two electric bus platforms, and electric conversion kits.

• Led the Roam Air motorcycle cost-optimisation programme, reducing unit production cost by 53%, from $4,500 to $2,100. Took the product from loss-making to break-even before handover, with a clear roadmap to profitability that expanded accessibility across Sub-Saharan African markets.

Led technical product management across four automotive product programmes: the Roam Air motorcycle, the Roam Move 32-seater matatu-class bus, the Roam Rapid low-floor mass-transit bus, and Griffin electric conversion kits. Directed cross-functional teams of more than 30 engineers and designers across battery development, electrical, mechanical, software, and reliability engineering.

• Owned full New Product Introduction cycles from Engineering Validation Test through Design Verification Test, Production Verification Test, and mass production for the Roam Air motorcycle, Roam Move bus, and Griffin conversion kits.
• Delivered Sub-Saharan Africa's first locally designed and developed electric motorcycle — the Roam Air — with 2,500 units in production. The Roam Air earned Roam Electric a 2022 Earthshot Prize Finalist designation (Prince William / The Royal Foundation — one of 15 global finalists). Roam was also named to the 'World's Most Innovative Companies' list during this period.
• Co-developed Kenya's national electric vehicle standard with the Kenya Bureau of Standards (KEBS) for nationwide implementation. Owned UN38.3 and UNECE R136 type-approval and certification.
• Delivered Sub-Saharan Africa's first locally designed and developed electric bus, the Roam Move, and led product strategy and development for the follow-on Roam Rapid low-floor mass-transit bus.
• Overhauled the product requirements specification process, reducing component manufacturing errors by 75% over two years (measured through aftersales failure rates and supplier-quality improvement).

R&D engineer focused on core subsystems for the Roam Air electric motorcycle: battery development, battery connector design, 72 V powertrain architecture, and electronics packaging. Earlier work included the Griffin programme — electric conversion kits for Land Cruisers and Land Rover Defenders.

• Designed and developed core subsystems for the Roam Air electric motorcycle, including battery development, battery connector design, 72 V powertrain architecture, and electronics packaging.
• Designed and developed the Griffin programme: plug-and-play electric conversion kits for Land Cruisers and Land Rover Defenders. Converted 30 vehicles before the company pivoted to ground-up electric-vehicle development to capture greater market share.

Pipeline and tank structural-integrity management within the Corrosion Control Department. Participated in commissioning the new oil pipeline to Jomo Kenyatta International Airport.

Installation, testing, and commissioning of high-voltage substation equipment at Isinya Substation, part of the Eastern Electricity Highway interconnect (Ethiopia – Kenya – Tanzania).
