Introducing Langelihle Mtshali: SmartTechNXT’s New RPA Developer
SmartTechNXT is pleased to welcome Langelihle Mtshali as the latest addition to their RPA (Robotic Process Automation) development team. With a strong academic background and practical experience in RPA, Langelihle is set to deliver innovative solutions to clients across a range of industries.
Rejoining the Team with Renewed Vision
Langelihle’s journey with SmartTechNXT began during his Digital Internship, where he gained valuable insights into the company’s operations and the potential career paths available. After spending a few years in the banking sector, Langelihle has rejoined SmartTechNXT, eager to apply his skills to solving complex challenges for clients.
“I’m particularly excited about solving problems through coding,” says Langelihle. His passion for coding, nurtured from a young age, is now focused on utilising low-code solutions to streamline processes through RPA. He explains, “My goal is to ensure that we use as little code as possible, while keeping our tools light and user-friendly.”
Academic and Professional Expertise
Langelihle holds a BSc in Computer Science and Information Technology from the University of KwaZulu-Natal. His degree laid the foundation for his problem-solving skills, while his certifications in RPA, GPT AI, Orchestrator, and IDP technologies provided him with practical experience in RPA development.
“University taught me that there are multiple ways to solve problems, which has diversified my approach to coding,” he reflects. However, Langelihle acknowledges that real-world applications like RPA often extend beyond academic training. His certifications have equipped him with the practical skills needed to implement and scale RPA solutions effectively, ensuring clients benefit from cutting-edge automation.
His experience in the banking sector has further sharpened his ability to serve SmartTechNXT’s clients. With a deep understanding of the specific processes and challenges faced by the finance industry, Langelihle is well-positioned to create tailored RPA solutions that meet client needs. “While my experience in finance is valuable, my process-thinking mindset can be applied across industries to help automate their operations,” he adds.
Strategic Approach to RPA Development
In his role, Langelihle is responsible for building, testing, and deploying software robots for new client solutions. His approach is systematic and client-focused, ensuring that each bot is adjusted or designed to meet the unique requirements of the client’s operations. He is also committed to providing ongoing support and maintenance, recognising that clients may need to evolve over time.
“Clients often change the way they work, and our bots need to evolve with them,” Langelihle explains. This approach ensures that the bots remain effective and also creates opportunities for process optimisation. “By staying closely involved in our clients’ operations, we can suggest ways to optimise their processes using RPA,” he adds.
Clear Goals for the Future
Langelihle has set clear objectives for his role at SmartTechNXT. In the short term, he aims to master all client requirements and quickly become proficient with existing bots. He is also keen to work with the engineering team to develop new bots from scratch, creating highly customised automation tools to meet the specific needs of each client.
“I plan to contribute to the growth of the SmartTechNXT engineering team by providing hands-on support and tailoring our bot applications to each client’s unique requirements,” he says. His dedication to continuous learning and process improvement aligns perfectly with SmartTechNXT’s mission to deliver smarter, more efficient automation solutions.
A Strong Alignment with SmartTechNXT’s Values
Langelihle’s approach to RPA aligns closely with SmartTechNXT’s value proposition. By focusing on low-code solutions, he ensures that the tools developed are effective, accessible, and easy to use. This approach is particularly valuable as businesses across sectors seek to streamline their operations without being overwhelmed by complex coding.
As Langelihle begins this new chapter with SmartTechNXT, his technical expertise, industry knowledge, and client-focused mindset position him as a key player in the company’s mission to drive innovation through RPA.
The Team at SmartTechNXT is excited to have Langelihle on board and they are looking forward to the valuable contributions he will make in delivering exceptional RPA solutions to their clients.
