Hola👋 I'm Paul,

I built a popular tool - Ahantu for easily finding cells, villages, sectors, and districts from street addresses and geo coordinates in Rwanda.

I am building NextPesa, A tool to aggregate mobile money transaction data💸.

In my spare time, I enjoy mountain biking and trying out new trails🚴‍♂️.

Favourites Tools 🧵 🪡

  • MongoDB(keeps your db problems till later).
  • Golang(a true Swiss army knife, great for everyday needs while simultaneously low-level enough to do systems programming and all the cool networking stuff).
  • Node.js.
  • Kubernetes(sends you on a learning roller coaster that includes but is not limited to container internals, networking, security, deployment patterns and Linux).
  • Vim (I heard it causes receding hairline, but it's worth it).
  • Linux (Well, you can't run away from it)

Currently Learning 📝 📌

  • Linux - through the LFCS curriculum, I won't be taking the certification itself.
  • Kubernetes - In preparation to get certified as a Certified Kubernetes Administrator(CKA).
  • Terraform, shell scripting, Kubernetes, and its tooling.
  • Random computer sciency things.

Currently Reading 📚 📖

  • Soft Skills: The software developer's life manual by John Sonmez
  • Google technical writing course - Casually audited this courses a couple of years ago, but I've been writing more lately, and I'd benefit from going through the material again.
  • Hands-On System Programming with Go by Alex Guerrieri — So I can pretend I'm smart on Twitter.
  • Concurrency in Go; tools and techniques for developers by Katherine Cox-Buday.

I occasionally write on my blog here https://dev.to/paularah. I kept a low-budget Youtube channel while teaching at Solvit Africa — a bootcamp for budding software engineers.

Recently, there has been an increase in the number of building collapse in Lagos and major cities in Nigeria. Olusola Insurance Company offers a building insurance policy that protects buildings against damages that could be caused by a fire or vandalism, by a flood or storm. You have been appointed as the Lead Data Analyst to build a predictive model to determine if a building will have an insurance claim during a certain period or not. You will have to predict the probability of having at least one claim over the insured period of the building. The model will be based on the building characteristics. The target variable, Claim, is a: 1 if the building has at least a claim over the insured period. 0 if the building doesn’t have a claim over the insured period.
