About

Hi, I'm Bruce Kiptoo.

I'm a developer based in Nairobi, Kenya, focused on building fast, reliable, and beautiful web products. Over the last few years I've helped startups, agencies, and product teams ship software that customers love and engineering teams enjoy maintaining.

I care about clean architecture, thoughtful UX, and measurable outcomes. Whether you need a new product launched from scratch or an existing codebase brought back to life, I bring a calm, senior-level approach to the work.

A few principles

  • ·Simple beats clever. Boring beats fragile.
  • ·Ship small, ship often, measure everything.
  • ·The user experience is the product.
  • ·Code is read more than it is written.
