AI Engineer and Data Scientist with 4+ years of experience building and deploying production AI systems across healthcare, ESG, and enterprise domains. My work spans the full stack, from deep learning and computer vision to LLM applications and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). Most recently, I led AI engineering for Amplitude Ventures (Norway), designing LLM-based systems and RAG pipelines with vector databases for enterprise knowledge extraction, and architecting the data infrastructure behind them. Before that, I built ML models and ETL pipelines for an ESG automation platform, and earlier led data-driven diagnostic systems for the Amhara Public Health Institute. I hold an MSc in Artificial Intelligence and Data Science from Bahir Dar University, and my research has been published in Springer and IEEE (2025) — including a A noise-robust framework for Amharic speech recognition and a deep learning system for Ethiopian Sign Language recognition. This gives me hands-on depth in an area that few AI engineers touch: multilingual and low-resource language modeling. Core stack: Python, PyTorch, TensorFlow, LangChain/LlamaIndex, Hugging Face, SQL, vector databases, Docker. If you're building an LLM-powered product, a RAG system, or need AI applied to underserved languages or domains, I'd like to help.

I help startups and growing businesses turn product ideas into reliable SaaS platforms, mobile apps, dashboards, and AI-powered features that are ready for real users not just demos. I work across the full product lifecycle: planning, architecture, backend, frontend, mobile, deployment, debugging, and scaling. Whether you are building an MVP, improving an existing product, or fixing a system that has outgrown its first version, I can help you move faster without creating technical debt. What I build • SaaS web apps, dashboards, and internal platforms • Flutter mobile apps for iOS and Android • Secure REST and GraphQL APIs • AI-powered product features using LLMs and structured outputs • Performance fixes, refactors, and scaling improvements • Backend systems with authentication, payments, workflows, and integrations Tech stack Frontend: React, Next.js, Vue, Nuxt, TypeScript, JavaScript, Tailwind CSS, Redux, Zustand, Apollo Client Backend: Django, Ruby on Rails, FastAPI, Express, Go, REST, GraphQL, Hasura, Apollo Server Mobile: Flutter, iOS, Android Database & Cloud: PostgreSQL, MySQL, Docker, CI/CD, Google Cloud Platform AI: LLM integrations, structured outputs, streaming UX, prompt workflows, guardrails, and production-ready AI features Why clients work with me I don’t just write tickets and disappear. I ask the right questions, think through the product, communicate clearly, and take ownership from idea to deployment. You can expect clean code, realistic timelines, clear updates, and practical decisions that support the product long term. I have worked on SaaS platforms, financial systems, EdTech products, automation tools, mobile apps, and high-performance dashboards. If you are building a SaaS product, launching a mobile app, adding AI features, or improving an existing system, send me your goals, current stack, and timeline. I’ll help you figure out the best next step.
