Bereket Tadesse

I’m a Full-stack Developer who loves shipping production-ready features quickly—without sacrificing security, performance, or maintainability. I’ve focused on building user-facing MVPs and scaling core flows for real customers across different product stages.

At Africato Silicon Valley, I delivered an FX/remittance MVP in four weeks for 10K+ users across seven countries, sustaining 99.9% uptime. I implemented OTP, Google OAuth, and HTTP-only JWT authentication to eliminate unauthorized incidents and remove support tickets, while also designing validation-rich pickers that reduced input errors by 30% and improved sign-ups by 18%.

I optimize systems end-to-end: I normalized FX rates and implemented caching with Redis and SWR to keep p95 lookup latency under 200ms. I built idempotent APIs and an optimistic UI that increased completion rate by 22% and prevented duplicate charges, and I’m comfortable partnering across design, product, and engineering to get features shipped.

Previously, I shipped a full-stack MVP in six weeks at Tefer with Lighthouse 98–100 during pilots, integrating Stripe Checkout (webhooks handled 1.2K+ payments) and supporting strong business outcomes. I also built a national learning platform for 1,000+ students at Ethiopian Space Science Society, delivering 90%+ course resume rates using JWT role-based access control and improving frontend responsiveness through code splitting and memoization.
