Cloud & DevOps Engineer · Nairobi, Kenya

I build cloud systems that are fast, reliable, and quietly intelligent.

I'm Paul Wechuli — a Cloud & DevOps engineer with 7+ years turning complex infrastructure into elegant, scalable solutions. Currently a Support Engineer at GitHub, working deep in GitHub Actions and CI/CD.

// 01 — approach

The human side of infrastructure.

With a strong programming background and deep DevOps expertise, I design and automate systems for maximum reliability and speed — running on the rock-solid foundation of Linux, orchestrated and scaled with Kubernetes.

At GitHub I support developers working in GitHub Actions every day, which gives me a front-row view of the hurdles teams actually face. That fuels how I build: understanding the why behind a problem and engineering the how — cleanly, efficiently, and sustainably.
