What I'm looking for

I want to build reliable, scalable web applications end-to-end—using React/JavaScript and Node.js—while partnering with teams that value clean architecture, performance, and clear project delivery from ideation through deployment.

I’m a Full-Stack Web Developer & Project Manager passionate about building clean, scalable applications. I focus on solving complex problems, optimizing performance, and integrating APIs to deliver reliable, user-friendly solutions from ideation to deployment.

I specialize in React and JavaScript on the frontend, and Node.js, Express, SQL/NoSQL, and MongoDB on the backend. I enjoy turning requirements into maintainable systems—shipping features that work well for users and are straightforward to extend.

Professionally, I’ve worked with teams across research and early-stage services, including roles at the Ethiopian Technology and Innovation Institute and the Ethiopian Government Communication Service. Currently, I’m engaged in professional system development at the Ethiopian Artificial Intelligence Institute, and I bring a project-management mindset shaped by my Master of Science in Project Management.
