About the founder

Hi, I'm Tadesse Eshetu.

I founded Berhan Tech Solutions to offer the thing I've always valued most on a project: a senior engineer who understands the business problem, designs a sensible solution, and then personally builds it.

For more than twelve years I've delivered full-stack applications in .NET, React and SQL Server, most recently as a lead engineer on enterprise cloud platforms in Azure and AWS. Before that I spent eight years building and maintaining the web applications behind a federal program.
