Hi, I'm

Haileamlak Belachew

A Software Engineer from Ethiopia.

About Me

I am a software engineer with a solid foundation in computer science and a passion for solving problems through innovative technology.

My academic journey at Addis Ababa University, where I recently graduated with great distinction, laid the groundwork for my expertise in software development. For the past three years, I have been honing my skills in competitive programming and software engineering through internships, hackathons, programming contests, and personal and academical projects.

A pivotal experience in my career has been my involvement with A2SV (Africa to Silicon Valley). It's rigorous training program has been instrumental in sharpening my technical and problem-solving skills. Through A2SV, I’ve had the opportunity to work on real-world projects, collaborate with talented peers, and engage in intensive coding sessions and hackathons. This experience not only enhanced my technical capabilities but also significantly improved my communication skills, especially in conveying complex ideas effectively.

I am passionate about using technology to make a meaningful impact and am always looking to connect with like-minded professionals and explore new opportunities to innovate and create value.
