Hi, I’m Kareen Ajatiton, a purpose-driven technologist, DevOps Engineer, and advocate passionate about building systems, communities, and conversations that matter. In Tech I specialize in DevOps engineering with hands-on experience in CI/CD automation, Docker, GitHub Actions, cloud infrastructure, and building scalable, reliable systems. My focus is creating user-centered solutions that bridge technology with real-world impact especially in underserved communities. In Advocacy & Leadership As the Founder of Yes! We’re the Future Leaders Foundation (YWTFL), I empower girls and youth through education, protection, leadership, and digital inclusion. My work aligns with UN SDGs 4, 5, and 16, ensuring quality education, advancing gender equality, and strengthening community systems. I’ve led campaigns like Pad a Girl Child and partnered with organizations such as Tech4Dev, Rotary Club, and The Future Project to drive youth-centered change at scale. Across both tech and advocacy, my mission remains the same: To create access. To amplify voices. To build systems, digital or societal, that help people thrive. Speaking & Thought Leadership I’m a people-centered storyteller who enjoys simplifying ideas, inspiring action, and helping others find clarity. I’ve spoken at conferences and community events on technology, identity, leadership, and purpose-driven growth. I also publish Code & Cause: Building With Purpose... a bi-weekly newsletter exploring the intersection of DevOps, advocacy, and intentional living. Community & Growth From mentoring teens to coordinating NGO programs, I thrive where purpose meets people. As an ALP Fellow and community leader, I bring experience in storytelling, identity building, and collaborative program development. What I’m passionate about: • DevOps, Cloud Engineering & Infrastructure Automation • Youth empowerment & gender advocacy • Community development & digital literacy • Leadership, storytelling & purpose-driven work Beyond the Work I’m committed to continuous learning, reflective growth, and serving with intention. Whether speaking, mentoring, writing, or leading programs, I find joy in creating spaces where others can grow, rise, and discover purpose. If you’re passionate about tech, advocacy, youth empowerment, or SDG-aligned impact Let’s connect and build something that truly matters.
