Hi, I'm Surafel Fisseha

Qirb Alga is a hospitality booking and property-management platform connecting customers with accommodations while giving owners complete management tooling. Includes public discovery, map-based property search, owner onboarding, license upload, admin approvals, room/package management, owner PMS, and an admin dashboard.

Integrates with local payment/telecom services including Chapa, Telebirr, CBE Birr, and Africa's Talking OTP.

Current Engineering Focus: Developing a hub API architecture (e.g., Addis Ababa and Bishoftu hubs) designed as an integration point to be consumed by external destination platforms such as Visit Bishoftu.

Engineered an API-only Laravel backend powering a public React website and a dedicated React Admin CMS. The database serves as the source of truth for all CMS-driven content, including dynamic projects, services, company history, messages with read/unread states, testimonial conversion, social links, and media assets.

Implemented Bearer token authentication via Laravel Sanctum for admin operations, written comprehensive test suites using Pest, and documented/tested endpoints with Bruno. Also built backend configuration for an AI chatbot with custom prompt and conversational history management.

A premium city discovery and destination platform designed to introduce visitors to Bishoftu's identity, tourism, culture, crater lakes, lifestyle, and investment opportunities. Structured as a dynamic, CMS-driven destination experience rather than a conventional municipal website.

Architected to integrate directly with external hospitality booking systems (such as Qirb Alga's hub API) to display live accommodation and activity availability.

A full-stack company platform and CMS for an Ethiopian agricultural export company. Engineered content management workflows for farm profiles, export products, corporate identity, and public website updates.

Built to deepen practical full-stack Next.js expertise with clean data modeling, responsive layouts, and multilingual typography including IBM Plex Sans, IBM Plex Mono, and Noto Sans Ethiopic.

A Telegram Mini App gaming aggregator and wallet system built on a Laravel modular monolith API with React, Vite, and TypeScript on the frontend, and PostgreSQL and Redis for backend persistence and caching.

Architected a financial ledger system featuring an append-only transaction ledger, single wallet balances with locked balance models, and a dual-identity model (phone number as canonical identity with Telegram ID as secondary identifier). Containerized with Docker and Nginx.

Full-stack web application for reserving consumer goods online with role-based access control (admin and customer roles). Features customer authentication, inventory reservations, delivery or pickup scheduling, and an administrative operations dashboard.

Responsive multi-page website built for a local e-commerce enterprise featuring smooth catalog browsing, product filtering, and an integrated customer contact workflow engineered for desktop and mobile viewports.
