About

Hi — I’m Wesley Kamau, a Computer Science & Engineering student from Columbus, Ohio, graduating in May 2027.

I like building things people actually use. Right now that’s internal developer tools at J.P. Morgan Chase. Everything else is stuff I just felt like making, and most of it’s on this site. I’m also passionate about all things space related.

In my spare time, I enjoy listening to , reading, journaling, going to the gym, cooking, playing video games, watching youtube, going to concerts, solving my rubik's cube, and playing with my cat, . I'm also working on picking up lockpicking.

Currently

J.P. Morgan Chase — Columbus, OH

Shipped UI and LLM-summarization features to an internal cybersecurity platform for tracking and managing software vulnerabilities, used firm-wide by tens of thousands of developers.
Built an autonomous multi-agent testing pipeline that converts Jira tickets, code context, and branch diffs into executable Playwright/Gherkin tests through a scenario-to-writer-to-critic agent loop with automated linting and self-correction.
Designed an onboarding agent that autonomously crawls repositories and generates deterministic YAML startup configs, enabling fully end-to-end autonomous test runs across multiple internal applications.
Independently built an internal web framework that lets developers write React-style Preact/TSX and deploy interactive static sites in ~20 seconds; adopted across teams, with member-built tools and docs reaching an estimated 5,000+ internal viewers.
Led a 9-person team as Product Owner at the firm's annual hackathon, building a tool that enables secure mobile, agentic coding on the internal network (a phone-accessible single-page app, a VS Code extension, and a local MCP server that reroutes tool approvals to the developer); finished as the highest-placing intern-led team firm-wide, beating 200+ teams composed largely of full-time engineers.
