AI, built for
the real world.

I build AI applications for creating, automating, and bringing ideas to life. Generative media, intelligent agents, and the infrastructure behind them. Founder of Postready Studio.

01 / SELECTED WORK

Ideas into things
people can use.

Useful products. Thoughtful systems.
Built from the ground up.

INFRASTRUCTURE / LAKEHOLDINGS · CANVAS PRINTS

The foundation behind the AI.

Helped build an in-house home lab using a cluster of computers and Proxmox, alongside work developing AI agents.

GENERATIVE AI / 2025

Knowledge, made conversational.

Enterprise RAG chatbot with query rewriting, dynamic retrieval, and streaming responses. Built with LangChain, LangGraph, and Pinecone.

MY FOCUS / AI APPLICATIONS

From an idea
to a new reality.

Creative tools powered by AI.
Engineered from interface to inference.

01 / MOTION

AI video generation

Building applications around generative video: connecting a creative brief to model inference, generation workflows, and usable output. My experience includes deploying a video generation model on a GPU server and keeping its runtime stable for production use.

02 / IMAGE

AI image creation

Turning generative imaging into a practical product experience. With Postready Studio, a product photo becomes a downloadable advertisement, paired with an editable Amharic or English caption for Ethiopian small businesses.

03 / CHARACTER

AI characters & storytelling

My next creative direction: applications for developing AI characters and exploring visual stories. I’m interested in workflows that carry a character concept into scenes and connect individual generations into a coherent narrative.

04 / CINEMA

AI filmmaking tools

I’m focusing on tools that make AI-assisted movie creation more approachable: moving from a story idea to a storyboard, generated shots, and a sequence ready for editing. This is a direction I’m exploring as I build my next AI applications.

THE ENGINEERING UNDERNEATH

Python APIs, agent orchestration, retrieval, self-hosted models, and reliable deployments. The goal is a complete application people can use.

PERSONAL PROJECT / 2026

Least Resistance Habit System

A full-stack habit tracker with daily check-ins, dashboards, and an AI agent for natural-language logging.

02 / THE PERSON BEHIND THE CODE

Curious by nature.
Engineer by practice.

I’m Endale, a software engineer based in Addis Ababa. I enjoy taking an idea all the way through: from data and models to APIs, deployment, and the systems that keep it running.

My focus is building AI applications: video and image generation, intelligent agents, and creative workflows. I’m also exploring AI characters and filmmaking tools, supported by a foundation in Python backends and self-hosted infrastructure. With Postready Studio, I’m bringing that experience closer to home—building a practical creative tool for Ethiopian businesses.

Away from the keyboard, you’ll find me exploring rivers, forests, and mountains, or working through a competitive programming challenge.
