Who are we

Vaulrix Systems is a Kenyan-born automation and industrial technology firm on a mission to make Africa’s industries productive, competitive, and globally relevant — using solutions designed in Africa, for Africa, by Africans.

We specialize in affordable, locally adapted automation tools — PLC programming, process control, predictive maintenance, and system optimization — giving factories and manufacturers the power to cut costs, boost efficiency, and compete at world-class levels without relying on imported solutions that don’t fit local realities.

Vaulrix exists because Africa has the talent — but needs its own tools. We’re here to build them.

About the Founder

1000+

Hours of Deep Learning, Practice & Purpose

Across four domains — Automation, Sports, Energy, and Leadership — I’ve dedicated over 1,000 hours toward learning, experimenting, building, and leading. Each path sharpened a unique skill set, but together they reflect who I am: a hands-on builder, a curious learner, and someone deeply committed to impact.

Automation & Industrial Systems

I specialize in PLC programming, system optimization, and predictive maintenance — building smarter, leaner industrial processes. My work is driven by the belief that African factories deserve affordable, homegrown automation solutions tailored to our realities. I’m currently building Vaulrix Systems to bring this vision to life — one efficient system at a time.

Sports

Sport has shaped my mindset — from grit to strategy. I’ve completed two half-marathons, actively played competitive football, and contributed to sports media projects as a storyteller and analyst. It’s where I learn discipline, recover from setbacks, and chase excellence with a team spirit.

Energy Access & Technology

I’m deeply invested in solving energy poverty using technology and community-based models. I research energy access trends, sustainable systems, and innovations bridging the energy divide. I also serve as the Director of the Participants Community at Energy Mentors, helping young people explore careers in clean energy.

Leadership

I thrive in leading teams, coordinating projects, and building spaces where people align around shared goals. Whether it’s in startups, volunteer communities, or engineering groups — I naturally step into roles where I can guide, energize, and deliver alongside others. Leadership to me is service and structure combined.

Why we Want to Build an Automation Firm & Why Now

I’ve walked through workshops that rely on guesswork instead of data. I’ve seen young technicians with potential, slowed down by broken tools and manual systems. And I’ve watched African industries import solutions that don’t understand our context — overpriced, overbuilt, and underperforming here at home.

I chose automation not just because it’s technical — but because it’s transformational. It turns chaos into clarity. Repetition into reliability. And for factories across Africa, it turns lost hours and wasted resources into productive output, jobs, and competitive strength.

Why now?

Because the world is moving fast. Global supply chains are shifting. Smart factories are the new standard. And with energy, labor, and climate challenges mounting, African manufacturers can’t afford to play catch-up anymore.

Automation is not a luxury. It’s our ticket to scale.
And if we don’t build it now — with local talent, for local needs — we risk another generation of dependency.

So I’m starting now.
Because waiting has never built a factory. But starting does.

Africa doesn’t need more imported systems. It needs systems built by its own hands — for its own rise.

Digital technology and human ingenuity combined will help us forge a more equal and prosperous Africa… We don’t need to imagine Africa in 2025 because it is within our means to build the continent and the future of our dreams.
