I build, break, and rebuild systems because that's how real understanding happens.
I'm a hands-on DevOps and Fullstack Engineer based in Nairobi, Kenya, currently deep in the process of building real production-grade systems from the ground up.
I don't just read documentation. I spin up infrastructure, watch it fail, debug it at 2am, fix it, and document every decision along the way. This GitHub is a living record of that journey honest, iterative, and always moving forward.
DevOps & Cloud
Fullstack Development
Right now I'm in an active, documented DevOps learning sprint building each layer of a production pipeline from scratch:
- 🔗 CI/CD Pipelines — Jenkins multi-stage pipelines that build, test, package, and deploy automatically
- 🐳 Containerization — Dockerizing applications and pushing production-ready images to Docker Hub
- ☁️ Cloud Infrastructure — Deploying highly available systems on AWS (EC2, EBS, VPC)
- 🏗️ Infrastructure as Code — Provisioning and managing cloud infrastructure with Terraform for consistent, version-controlled environments
- ☸️ Kubernetes — Next on the roadmap: orchestrating containers at scale
Every project is an end-to-end build not just the happy path.
Built a resilient PostgreSQL deployment across 3 AWS Availability Zones using Docker, EC2, and EBS volumes with optimized IOPS, automated snapshots, and a fully secured custom VPC. 👉 View Project
Because understanding the foundations matters more than using the shortcut.
A clean, responsive portfolio site featuring a live digital clock built with vanilla HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
Deployed and hosted on Netlify.
A responsive JavaScript app pulling real-time data from the OpenWeatherMap API.
Built with clean HTML5/CSS3 because frontend fundamentals still matter.
I write about what I'm building on Medium breaking down the decisions, the failures, and what actually worked.
If you're learning DevOps or cloud engineering, you might find it useful.
I'm always open to collaboration, feedback, and conversations about building better systems.
Currently learning in public. Every commit is a step forward.
