James Makau

With over 12 years of professional experience in Software Engineering, I bring a robust blend of deep technical expertise and strategic leadership. My career has been centered around designing, building, and securing scalable systems across cloud-native environments, with a strong foundation in modern software architecture, DevOps practices, and agile methodologies.

I have led cross-functional engineering teams to deliver high-impact solutions in fast-paced environments, consistently driving innovation, operational efficiency, and secure development practices. My skill set spans full-stack development, cloud computing (AWS, GCP), CI/CD automation, container orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes), and information security compliance.

Driven by a passion for technology and excellence, I thrive in roles that demand both hands-on engineering and team leadership. I’m committed to building resilient systems, fostering a strong DevSecOps culture, and delivering products that scale reliably and securely.
