About

I’m Joseph Mukorivo, an AI product engineer, engineering leader, and founder based in Harare, Zimbabwe. I have more than seven years of experience building production software across frontend, backend, cloud, data, and applied AI systems. I currently lead engineering at Art Circles, where I set technical direction, shape AI strategy, and guide product delivery.

I founded Complexus, an independent Zimbabwean software company, and built FortyOne, an agentic project management platform that connects company goals, customer feedback, planning, and delivery. My AI work includes tool-using agents, conversational and voice interfaces, structured automation, analytics, and human review for consequential actions.

I work from the problem outward: understand the people and constraints, make the system boundaries explicit, and then choose technology that can be operated reliably. I care about useful software, clear interfaces, secure defaults, observable systems, and small details that make a product feel considered.

My experience includes fintech and regulated environments, remote product teams in Africa and the United States, and hands-on delivery from early product definition through architecture, implementation, launch, and iteration. I earned a First Class BSc Honours in Information Technology from Chinhoyi University of Technology and I am completing an MBA at the National University of Science and Technology.
