Kensley Kyle Naicker

Software Engineer
based in Cape Town

I build enterprise software and cloud-native systems at Euromonitor, where I was promoted from Junior to Mid-level .NET Developer in December 2024. My stack spans C#/.NET, React/Next.js, Azure, and PHP — and I bring a builder's mindset to everything I ship.

Beyond the day job, I'm building DigiStep — a Cape Town digital transformation company — and PageBoost AI, a SaaS product helping South African small businesses automate their social media. I hold the AZ-900 certification and serve as an AI Ambassador on my team.
