KHALID SULTAN

Hi I'm Khalid. I'm 23 and I just became a new grad software engineer from Addis Ababa Institute of Technology here in Ethiopia.

I would describe myself as a diligent individual committed to bettering myself in all aspects of life. I'm looking to improve my experience and learn more from opportunities I can find. Currently, I'm seeking internships/part-time/full-time positions in organizations where I can further improve and contribute to the fullest.
