Bio
Ewnetu Abera
Tigist joined us as a full-time employee for Full Stack Java developer position in 2017. Her responsibilities included requirements gathering, analysis and design of complex Web applications using a variety of technologies like Angular, Spring Boot, Hibernate, MongoDB and SQL databases. Tigist proved herself to be a dependable employee and a hard worker with solid problem solving and technical skills. I was always impressed by her ability to complete the work assigned to her on time. Tigist not only met deadlines but also explains her programs in a way that non-experts can easily understand. This skill came in handy when he presented the programs to clients who weren't particularly tech savvy. Her project management skills on top of the technical skills gave us confidence to give her full ownership's of our projects. Overall, Tigist is a talented, hard-working employee, and I am sad to see her leave. I strongly recommend her for full-stack development position; she is an asset to have on any team.
