I'm a self-taught Full Stack Developer based in Ethiopia, working across the MERN-adjacent stack (Node.js, Express, React, PostgreSQL, MySQL) with a growing specialization in AI-augmented product features β semantic search, RAG pipelines, and embedding-based matching systems. My academic background is in Applied Biology (B.Sc., Addis Ababa University).
I design and ship complete products end-to-end: architecture, backend APIs, database schemas, frontend interfaces, and deployment β with AI woven in as a genuine differentiator, not a bolt-on feature.
