Software engineer building scalable web applications and AI-backed systems.
EthiopiaWhat I'm looking for
I am a motivated and results-oriented software engineer with hands-on experience designing and implementing scalable backend systems and full-stack solutions for production environments. I have shipped features for AI-powered school management platforms, migrated legacy sites to modern frameworks, and continuously improved performance, SEO, and developer workflows.
My strengths include building RESTful APIs, integrating third-party services such as SMS gateways and payment systems, and delivering data-driven features like automated academic workflows, adaptive learning modules, and finance/HR submodules. I maintain high code quality through Git/GitHub, testing, documentation, and security practices while collaborating closely with frontend and cross-functional teams.
I am pursuing a BSc in Software Development and actively building systems-level projects like a lightweight OS kernel. I thrive in dynamic environments where I can apply backend and full-stack expertise to solve real-world problems and contribute to impactful products.
