What I'm looking for

I seek a hands-on role in backend or ML engineering at a mission-driven team where I can build scalable systems, apply ML to real problems, and grow technically while contributing to community-focused projects.

I am a motivated Computer Science and Engineering graduate with a 3.96/4.00 GPA and strong practical experience in backend development and machine learning.

During an internship at Metnee Systems PLC I developed backend systems with Node.js and MongoDB, designed APIs, and built a freelancer-company marketplace that improved job access.

I led an AI-powered fraud detection final-year project using Python and scikit-learn, and developed a Tigrinya speech-to-text model to improve local language accessibility.

I combine technical expertise with leadership and community service—volunteering in psychological first aid, coordinating labs, supporting peace initiatives, and organizing charity activities.
