About

Professional summary

I am a fifth-year Software Engineering undergraduate at Addis Ababa Science and Technology University and a full-stack developer with production experience in fintech and distributed systems.

I build backend services and responsive web applications using FastAPI, Next.js, TypeScript, Python, PostgreSQL, Redis, and Docker. My work focuses on reliable integrations, scalable platform tooling, and clear API contracts.

I have experience applying Clean and Hexagonal Architecture to decouple core business logic from external banking and payment-provider integrations. I have worked on Open Banking flows, core banking transactions, account-balance checks, interbank settlements, and webhook reconciliation.

I am experienced in multi-tenant application development, including Keycloak-based identity and access management, RBAC, tenant isolation, asynchronous messaging, background queues, and event broadcasting.

I also build cross-platform and data-driven products, including e-commerce platforms and Flutter applications with Firebase and IoT telemetry synchronization.

Beyond engineering, I have led large campus organizations, managed cross-functional teams and budgets, and organized leadership events for a community of more than 1,300 active members.
