Software Engineer & BI/AI Project Manager
Building enterprise applications and intelligent workflows for complex business operations.
I bridge business operations and software engineering, turning complex workflows into reliable applications.
- 💼 BI/AI Project Manager at Africa Global Logistics, working on data, automation, and enterprise transformation.
- ⚓ Contributing to Cognitiv’Dore, a program supporting the digital transformation of conventional cargo-handling operations.
- 🧠 Independently building KardiaMind, a mental-health and teletherapy platform.
- 🌍 Based in Douala, Cameroon, working in French and English.
My work combines application development, data integration, and cloud delivery, with a focus on traceability, maintainability, and keeping people in control of critical decisions.
Cognitiv’Dore is an Africa Global Logistics program supporting the digital transformation and supervision of conventional cargo-handling operations.
Maritime manifests arrive in different formats and structures. Before operational and billing systems can use this information, it must be extracted, standardized, checked, and validated.
I am currently working on the Preparation module, which transforms manifests received as PDF, EDI/TXT, Excel, or manual input into structured, controlled, and traceable data.
The module brings together:
- Data preparation: import, extraction, and structuring of heterogeneous manifest data.
- Business validation: automated business rules and data-quality checks.
- Human review: correction and validation workflows that keep users in control.
- Traceability: a record of processing and validation activities.
- System integration: standardized outputs for downstream operational and billing systems, supported by centralized data storage.
The module is designed to reduce repeated data entry, limit processing errors, and improve manifest preparation efficiency.

I’m building KardiaMind, a mental-health and teletherapy platform for patients, therapists, and administrators.
KardiaMind brings therapist discovery, appointment booking, patient management, and remote consultations into a connected experience.
My work spans the API, administration portal, realtime services, and supporting operational workflows:
- Application foundations: a versioned API, React administration portal, authentication, and role-based authorization.
- Care coordination: therapist discovery, appointment booking, patient management, and automated reminders.
- Realtime communication: messaging, presence, and audio consultations.
- Payments and operations: mobile-money payments, financial workflows, and therapist payouts.
- Engineering quality: automated testing, static analysis, and CI/CD.
The project brings together product development and the engineering challenges of coordinating communication, scheduling, and payments across multiple user roles.
