01About me

Director. Builder.
Based in Harare.

I'm Alpha Tembo, a software developer, AI engineer, and consultant based in Harare, and co-founder of NerdiQ Technologies. I build apps for Mac, Windows, Android, and iOS. I earned a BSc in Computer Science, Software Development, at Midlands State University from August 2020 to June 2024. Clients can work with me in English or Shona.

As Director of NerdiQ, I lead a team that builds cross-platform mobile applications, with REST APIs behind them and Flutter as a core skill. I have been Lead Mobile Applications Developer there since February 2022, and Director since June 2023. I am also Director of IT at UNNECT, where I look after the technology, including DigitalOcean, server management, and server administration.

The work has been recognised at the Zimbabwe International Trade Fair 2022: Best Innovation Award, pitch competition winner, and hackathon winner, plus the Student Cluster Building Competition. I also hold certifications in theoretical PHP, 3D printing and computer-aided design, and start-up company recognition. Clients hire me when the product has to reach users, on the phone and on the server.

02What I do

What you get
when you hire me.

AI Agents

Intelligent agents that take real work off your team: support, onboarding, and operations, built to run in production, not as a demo.

Backend Engineering

REST APIs and the backend a mobile product depends on. Built so the app stays fast and the data stays reliable.

Mac, Windows, Android, iOS

Apps for each of those platforms, from the first screen to a product people can use. Mac apps are native. Android and iOS share the mobile work. Windows apps are built in C# and .NET.

Servers & Cloud

Server administration and management, including DigitalOcean. Production infrastructure that stays up after launch.

Project Consultancy

Advice on what to build, how to scope it, and how the product and the servers should fit together. Useful before a build starts, and when a project is stuck.

03Experience

A record of
shipping real systems.

DroidBridge, a Mac and Android file browser

DroidBridge

A two-pane file browser: your Mac on one side, an Android phone on the other, using the bundled adb tools. Switch between internal storage and an SD card, follow the transfer, and see a plain-language note when a drive is read-only, such as NTFS.

MacSweep disk cleaner

MacSweep

A Mac cleaner in the style of CleanMyMac. It clears junk, finds large files, groups duplicates by size, then a fingerprint, then SHA-256, always keeping one copy, uninstalls apps, and opens a Space Lens of what is using the disk.

PageForge PDF tools

PageForge

PDF work on the Mac: merge, split, rotate, reorder, and compress with macOS Reduce File Size at three strengths. Place a signature, add stamps, turn images into a PDF, and add a text layer to scans. Ranges look like 1-3, 5, 8-.
