Ethiopia

Message

At A2SV, I developed, tested, and deployed more than 25 RESTful API endpoints, improving system modularity. I also engineered a recommendation ranking algorithm that processed more than 10 parameters to enhance match accuracy.

As a freelance backend developer, I worked on serverless architecture on AWS and a Python project shipped to Google Cloud.

On Janadrive, I worked on a top-10 ranking feature using vectorization and implemented asynchronous processing with Redis and Celery, reducing response time to roughly 100 ms. I also integrated Google Document AI to extract data from files over 120 pages.

Across projects, I’ve contributed to talent-matching platforms, a GPT-3.5-powered chatbot, and automated proposal data extraction. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Software Engineering from Addis Ababa Science and Technology University and received an ICPC 2023 Regional Contest achievement certificate after my team finished in the top 37%.
