👋 Nice to meet you

I'm Denis AKPAGNONITE

I'm a dedicated Software Engineer specializing in DevOps & Cloud Native ⎈ technologies. My journey in Tech is driven by my enthusiasm for designing and implementing scalable web applications and infrastructures that leverage the latest in cloud advancements.

My work mindset is built around a strong commitment to open source. I actively participate in open-source projects, motivated by a conviction in collaboration and knowledge sharing. My involvement in GitHub's All In Africa program was a transformative experience that fueled my desire to contribute to and advocate for the open-source community.

My expertise lies at the intersection of Software Engineering, Cloud Native solutions, and technical writing. I am an aspiring thought leader in these areas, constantly seeking out new challenges. Whether it's developing, testing, deploying, or maintaining robust projects, I am passionate about applying my skills to create impactful real-world solutions.

In essence, I am more than simply a software engineer; I am a strong supporter of open source, a Cloud Native fan, and an aspiring DevOps specialist. My goal is to continue growing, learning, and making meaningful contributions to the technology industry.

Mentions

I took over the Loopbin project which was originally designed by Ayao Corneille ALLOGBALO and I simply customized it because I'm terrible when it comes to the UI design.
