Mugambi started his media career at Pamoja FM, a community-based radio station based in Kibera. He used the platform to master the Swahili language. 

His big break came after he was hired by K24 TV, where he worked for five years before joining Citizen TV in 2017.

During a past interview, Mugambi revealed that he borrowed a suit to look elegant on his first job interview.

"I remember standing up and seeing the number beginning with 020...wondering who was calling me. Then the voice on the other side said, 'Hi, I'm Richard Kagoye from K24.'

"That was like the best phone call I had received in a long time. He told me that I was required to go for a screen test on Sunday and needed to be in a suit," Mugambi narrated.
