Technical Program Manager at Barizi Communications Ltd, improving CI/CD and cloud infrastructure to increase system stability by 30%.

Kenya

Message

At Barizi Communications Ltd, I own end-to-end delivery across a portfolio of enterprise client engagements spanning web, SaaS, mobile, and cloud infrastructure. I translate client requirements into development roadmaps and coordinate distributed teams through delivery.

I’ve improved CI/CD pipelines and cloud infrastructure across the portfolio, reducing deployment cycle times and increasing system stability by 30%. I also advise external partners, connecting business needs with engineering constraints.

At COSEKE Kenya, I coordinated delivery of the eBoard Management System, adopted by the Government of Kenya Cabinet Office, county governments, and parastatals. I also led the migration of legacy systems to AWS and Docker, reducing operational costs by about 15%.

As Technical Program Manager for the Remirang Cross-Border Remittance Platform and Yasil Ride-Hailing App, I coordinated engineering teams, delivery plans, risks, and milestones through release. My background in full-stack software development helps me work closely with engineering teams on technical decisions and delivery.
