My name is Douglas Mashonganyika. I’m a software developer and designer who is detail-oriented and passionate about problem-solving. Mathematics and analytical thinking drew me into development and design.

I build web and software products, work with UI/UX in Adobe XD and Figma, and create illustrations in Adobe Illustrator, from prototypes to production.

The thread

Experience

Agencies, startups, and freelance: from neurosurgery sites and transport platforms to AI research and civic education. Each stop sharpened how I ship interfaces, talk to stakeholders, and turn ambiguity into something shippable.

Civic education needed a visual language people actually wanted to share. I paired campaign graphics with lightweight web pieces that could travel on slow connections.
