Nanbon Alemu
@nanbonalemu
Full Stack Developer and AI Trainer skilled in scalable software and AI evaluation.
What I'm looking for
I am a Full Stack Developer and AI Trainer with 6+ years of experience in software development, competitive programming, and AI training. I combine hands-on backend and frontend development with rigorous algorithmic problem solving.
I have reviewed and evaluated AI-generated code across multiple languages, crafted prompts, and provided structured feedback to improve model outputs and alignment with production standards. I strengthened AI training pipelines through careful annotation and quality control for underrepresented languages.
On the engineering side, I built RESTful APIs, MERN applications, and reusable React component libraries, and I resolved production issues including concurrency bugs, pipeline errors, and performance bottlenecks. I am comfortable with Docker, Git workflows, and database optimization in MySQL and MongoDB.
I am pursuing a Bachelor of Computer Science at the University of Messina while expanding my AI and data science skills through targeted programmes; I thrive in collaborative, fast-paced environments and aim to contribute to high-quality, scalable AI and software systems.
