About me
A bit about
who I am
I'm Evans, a Software and DevOps Engineer based in Nairobi with 3 years of experience delivering software solutions across Kenya. I thrive at the intersection of great design and clean code.
I believe great backend systems are invisible — they handle millions of requests without a hitch. I build fast, accessible APIs and rock-solid DevOps pipelines designed to last. When I'm not automating deployments, you'll find me walking or hunting for a good espresso.

Automated Security Scan CI/CD Pipeline
A Projects where CI/CD pipelines don't just deliver code—they enforce security best practices. By embracing the "Shift Left" principle, this Projects abandons the outdated practice of treating security as an afterthought in the software development lifecycle. Through automated security testing integrated directly into the CI/CD pipelines, vulnerabilities are detected and remediated early. This transforms secure software delivery into a continuous process rather than a final checkpoint.
