Software Engineer · AI & Agent Workflows · Backend & Automation
Software / AI Engineer in Takamatsu, Japan. 2 yrs 3 mos at Kirirom Digital.
About
- I'm Kwaku — a software and AI engineer with 7+ years building the systems companies actually run on internally, not the thing on the marketing site.
- I build end to end with Python, TypeScript, Go, FastAPI and Next.js — from schema and API design through to the dashboard someone opens at 9am.
- Most of my recent work is LLM agents, tool use and workflow automation, built so a person still approves the parts that matter.
- On infrastructure I work with AWS, Docker, Kubernetes and GitHub Actions, with a bias toward releases that are boring and observable.
