Message

At 8436 Insight, I localize a sports news web app into Amharic and Afaan Oromo. I write and review interface text and keep terminology consistent across screens.

For Medhin Link, an insurance service on Ethio Telecom's telebirr SuperApp, I translate insurance and payment terms into clear Amharic and review in-app text before release.

At Nexovate Trading PLC, I build and run web platforms, mobile apps, and payment integrations for Ethiopian clients as lead developer. I also served as software engineer on 8436 Insight and Medhin Link, handling code and language work together.

Previously, I contributed to telecom and fintech platforms at Huawei Technology Company, developing and maintaining web applications with Vue.js, Spring Boot, and Node.js. At Zeraf Technologies, I built and maintained responsive applications and implemented unit and end-to-end testing.
