How I can help

I work with founders and teams in three steps, shaping the idea, shipping production AI and SaaS, then growing without fragile rewrites.

1

Strategy & architecture

I help you sharpen the problem, trim scope to what actually ships, and design the stack, AI agents, RAG, voice, data, integrations, and hosting, into a roadmap you can fund and execute.

2

Build

I implement production-grade software end to end: Next.js UIs, Node or Python backends, AI and voice pipelines, auth, Stripe, CRM hooks, webhooks, and observability, not demos that collapse under real traffic.

3

Scale & iterate

Once you are live, I keep you moving, performance tuning, automation (including N8N), reliability fixes, security-minded hardening, and new features, so growth does not force a risky rewrite.

Dereje is an exceptional developer! I hired a total of 6 developers, and he was the last one standing at the end of the project because he was the best! He's great, very reliable, can fix things quickly, is prompt, and overall has been an incredible first hire.
