Aklilu Mandefro Messele
About Me
My name is Aklilu Mandefro. I’m a senior full-stack software engineer, researcher and content writer. I’m friendly, fast-moving, self-managing, and highly capable with a sense of humor having 8+ years of experience in designing and developing responsive web applications for all type of businesses, large or small. I am fascinated by the process of making discoveries from research, sharing knowledge through publications, designing and developing problem-solving cutting-edge software products, providing scientific solutions, and learning from other professionals.
I am passionate about being perfect throughout my life. For me being perfect is not to know everything academically or professionally but to make someone smile, feel someone’s pain and do something good for other people around me. Most importantly, what makes me very grateful is helping others and see their happiness and success because of me.
When I am not at my desk, I can be seen helping out tech geeks and writing technology-related contents. I am always open to help others.
