Addis Ababa · Ethiopia Collaborating with remote founding teams

I build systems that balance technical rigor with human impact.

What started as curiosity about how products work grew into a career crafting dependable back-end services. Whether I'm translating educational content into Ethiopian Sign Language or wiring payment automation, I obsess over clarity, observability, and continuous learning.

Principles

What guides my work

Beyond languages and frameworks, these principles keep projects moving forward with trust and momentum.

01 Collaboration over ego—bring product, design, and data into the room early and keep them there.
02 Learn fast, teach faster—document findings, pair program, and leave codebases better for the next developer.
03 Reliability is a feature—observability, graceful fallbacks, and automated tests are non-negotiable.
04 Accessibility is innovation—building for underserved communities uncovers new product opportunities.
Process

How I turn ideas into shipped features

From the first discovery call to post-launch support, I stay close to business context and technical details.

01 · Discover & align
Kick-off
  • Clarify the problem by mapping stakeholders, success metrics, and technical constraints.
  • Audit existing systems and data flows to spot opportunities and risks.
02 · Architect & validate
Design
  • Prototype integrations, data models, and contract-first APIs.
  • Write lightweight ADRs so the team understands trade-offs before sprinting.
03 · Build & iterate
Delivery
  • Pair program, review pull requests, and maintain healthy CI pipelines.
  • Instrument features with logs and metrics to catch regressions early.
04 · Launch & support
Post-launch
  • Coordinate feature toggles, beta rollouts, and team training.
  • Hold retrospectives to level up documentation, reliability, and speed next time.
