About Me
Hello, My name is Owen

Owen Adirah
Senior Software Engineer
Who I Am
I'm a software engineer based in Nairobi, Kenya, with 7+ years of experience building high-impact applications across fintech, cross-border trade, and creative platforms. Currently at Equity Group Holdings, I architect Angular applications and Go microservices for one of Africa's largest banking groups, serving millions of customers across multiple subsidiaries.
My work has delivered measurable results: 60% faster page loads through optimized state management, 40% reduction in deployment times via configurable multi-tenant architectures, and 30% acceleration in development cycles through reusable component libraries. I've shipped production systems processing 500+ transactions per second and built CI/CD pipelines that achieve near-instant deployments.
Beyond traditional software, I'm exploring the frontier of AI and blockchain—building multi-agent systems with LangChain/LangGraph, RAG pipelines for document intelligence, and NFT-based ticketing systems on Polygon. I also run Owezzy Software Consultancy, where I help businesses bring their technical visions to life.
