Max Murage

I am a Bachelor of Science in Information Technology student graduating in August 2026 with hands-on software development experience building secure, full-stack web systems. I designed and built a Laravel-based project, A Secure Middleware System for Integrating Patient-Generated Follow-Up Data with Electronic Medical Records in Kenyan Outpatient Settings, featuring custom security middleware, automated clinical validation logic, and audit-grade traceability. This work sharpened my thinking around data integrity, input validation, and system trust at the architecture level.

My technical foundation spans Java, TypeScript, JavaScript, PHP, Python, and core web technologies, and I am comfortable working across the stack: backend logic, securing data pipelines against injection and scripting attacks, and shaping usable front-end interfaces. A three-month ICT attachment in a national referral hospital further strengthened my understanding of system reliability, end-user support, and working within regulated, highresponsibility environments. I bring strong documentation habits, clear communication, and a security-conscious approach to development, and I am eager to grow as a developer within a fast-paced, team-based engineering environment.
