I'm a passionated Software Developer from Nairobi, Kenya with focus on backend and cloud development. I love bulding software that leverage different technologies and architectures to deliver highly scalable, secured, fault tolerant software systems that meet end-users need.

I enjoy turning complex problems into simple and intuitive solutions.

When I’m not programming, I focus on my hobbies which are: article writing, playing video games and growing my network.

Apart from coding, I also maintain a blog - you can find my articles on my website at evansopilo.hashnode.dev.
