Milton Gore About
Who I Am
I'm a Zimbabwean software engineer based in Mauritius, with nearly a decade of experience building enterprise software, cloud-native systems, and, more recently, AI-driven products. My work spans startups, consulting, and established enterprise organizations across Zimbabwe and Mauritius.
My Journey
From student to engineer
My career began at Chinhoyi University of Technology, where I moved from student developer to intern to graduate trainee, cutting my teeth on C#, PHP, Java, and my first Angular projects. From there I moved through a full-stack role at Conhub, into mobile and desktop development with Blazor and Xamarin at SST Africa, then into large-scale enterprise engineering at Dayforce working across Angular and Spring Boot microservices.
More recently, my path has taken me into cloud-native, containerized backend systems at Mauritius Network Services, and now into ASP.NET-based systems at Glide Shipping, while founding and building Bytepic on the side, and pursuing an MSc in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning focused on hybrid LLM systems.
Beyond Technology
Life outside the IDE
Outside of engineering, I play football, a lifelong passion that taught me discipline and teamwork long before I wrote my first line of code. I also enjoy mentoring developers earlier in their careers, staying current with AI research, and thinking about product design and entrepreneurship through Bytepic.
Personal Philosophy
How I approach the work
- Build practical solutions that solve real problems, not just technically interesting ones.
- Keep learning: new stacks, new research, new ways of thinking about problems.
- Share knowledge through mentoring and collaboration rather than hoarding it.
- Create lasting value for the people and teams I work with.
