Expertise — Lovemore Chanengeta

Systems Architecture

Designing scalable, modular platforms for institutions and enterprises. I focus on systems that can grow with an organization — architectures that are durable, maintainable, and don't require rewrites every two years. The SYMS ecosystem is a living example: 12+ interconnected products sharing a unified data layer.

AI & Automation

Practical AI integration that works in production, not just demos. From Pyastrator (AI-driven Adobe Illustrator automation) to BaobabBrain's adaptive learning engine — I build AI that reduces operational burden rather than adding complexity.

Cloud, Edge & DevOps

Production-grade infrastructure from cloud to edge. Cloudflare Workers for serverless (statusSYMS), Docker + K8s orchestration, and syms-os-edge running on Raspberry Pi for on-premise deployments where internet is unreliable.

Philosophy

How I Build

The best technology is invisible. Users shouldn't have to think about infrastructure — it should just work. My job is to design systems that are durable enough to last a decade, flexible enough to evolve, and simple enough that teams can maintain them without calling me.

Every system I design starts with a problem worth solving and ends with something an institution can depend on. That's the measure of good work.

Start with the problem

Understand the operational reality before writing any code. Sit with the users. Watch how they work.

Design for durability

Build systems that will work for the next decade, not just the next sprint. Avoid trends that won't survive.

Optimize for maintainability

Code is read more than it's written. Keep it simple. Document the why, not just the what.

Ship incrementally

Deliver value early and often. Perfect is the enemy of good. Get it in users' hands and iterate.

Own the full stack

From pixel to packet. Don't hand off what you can't explain. Understand every layer you depend on.

Build for Africa's context

Low bandwidth, intermittent connectivity, mobile-first, multilingual. Design for the real conditions.

Let's Build

Need technical leadership?

Whether it's a new platform, a technical strategy, or scaling an existing system — I bring 20 years of building production systems to the table.
