Thomas Juma Email & Phone Number

I am a Research and Development enthusiast, possessing a wealth of experience spanning 15 years within the domains of Software Engineering, System analysis, Design, and Research and Development. My principal duties include setting the strategic direction of research and ensuring alignment with the organization’s goals, overseeing and guiding the brilliant minds in the research and development department.I focus on research and rapid prototyping of various technologies that bring value back to the lives of people in Africa. My goal? To bring value into the lives of my fellow Africans, by finding innovative and sustainable solutions to everyday challenges.I’m passionate about giving our youth the tools and the skills they need to become the future leaders of tomorrow. We can do this by creating an environment where people are not afraid to fail and learn, in the hope that we will find the answers to some of the toughest problems we face. This goes hand in hand with giving equal opportunity to people from all walks of life. No matter the gender, religion or ethnicity. I like taking apart small electronics and rebuilding them using different IoT components. Been taking a small electronics course online. Done a couple of toy race cars. Hoping to build a fleet of fully autonomous cars. Maybe I’ll get the skills and confidence to start modding actual cars one day or start building actual robots.“Research is seeing what everybody else has seen and thinking what nobody else has thought.” - Albert Szent-Györgyi

Listed skills include Java, Android, Software Engineering, System Design, and 23 others.
