Eric Ouma

Software Engineer

Nairobi, Kenya

Summary

With over 5 years of hands-on experience in professional software development using Python, I specialize in building robust, scalable solutions that solve real-world problems. I'm the sole developer behind https://book.airducap.com, where I engineered a flight booking system from scratch.

I currently work on backend systems for the music industry (music metadata), processing cue sheets, DDEX DSR files, and CWR (EDI) files, creating CCID files to facilitate royalty payments.

I’ve freelanced globally, check out my Upwork profile (https://www.upwork.com/freelancers/~01dbc16a086dd7c367), and I’m passionate about giving back to the dev community through Stack Overflow (https://stackoverflow.com/users/9564152/eric-o) and open-source contributions like django-typesense (https://github.com/EricOuma).
