John Saruni
I am the Senior Technical Systems Lead at the Internet Society Foundation. In this position, I lead the implementation, maintenance, and integration of systems to ensure effective operation of the Foundation’s grants management system. Further, I build and maintain data pipelines for collective impact reporting.
I have over 12 years of working experience in systems administration, automation and cybersecurity. Prior to joining the Foundation, I served as a Senior Systems Administrator at KENET, the Kenyan Research and Education Network, where I led the KENET CERT. I also volunteered at the KeNIC ICT committee, where I provided guidance to the management and board on all technical issues. KeNIC is the dot ke domain registry.
I am passionate about data and cybersecurity, and when away from work, I watch lots of football and basketball. Occasionally, I participate in the Standard Chartered Nairobi marathon. I’m based in Kenya.
