Professional Summary
Ethiopian Hydraulic and Water Resource Engineer with strong professional experience in hydrology, hydrogeology, municipal groundwater resource management, borehole site selection, drainage design, flood-control works, water supply network extension, and applied water resources engineering. He has served as a Hydrologist at Shire Endasilassie Construction Office and as a Hydrogeologist at Maytsebri Municipal Office, supporting groundwater investigations, geological mapping, aquifer monitoring, municipal water supply expansion, drainage infrastructure, and flood-risk reduction. His technical work combines field investigation with engineering software including AutoCAD, GIS, WEAP, HEC-RAS, and HEC-HMS to support practical, data-driven and climate-resilient water infrastructure solutions.
Key Expertise
Major Projects and Contributions
-
Hydrogeologist – Maytsebri Municipal Office
Leads localized groundwater investigations, geological mapping, technical evaluation for borehole site selection, aquifer monitoring, and municipal water resource management to support reliable local water supply services. -
Municipal Water Supply Network Development
Designs, expands, and supports sustainable municipal water supply networks, helping optimize community water distribution, local water infrastructure, and groundwater-based supply systems. -
Groundwater Investigation and Borehole Site Selection
Conducts hydrogeological assessments, borehole site-selection evaluations, geological mapping, aquifer-yield monitoring, and field-based groundwater resource investigations for local water development. -
Hydrologist – Shire Endasilassie Construction Office
Served as a Hydrologist supporting engineering hydrological analysis, peak runoff coefficient calculation, drainage infrastructure design, and flood-control works for municipal construction and public infrastructure projects. -
Drainage Design and Flood-Control Infrastructure Support
Contributed to the design of structural drainage frameworks and hydraulic flood-control works, using hydrological analysis and engineering judgement to reduce flood risk around public construction sites. -
Hydrological Modelling and Rainfall-Runoff Analysis
Applies rainfall-runoff analysis, flood routing, peak catchment discharge estimation, HEC-HMS, HEC-RAS, and GIS-supported modelling to evaluate water systems and support resilient hydraulic design. -
Advanced Engineering Software Application
Uses AutoCAD, GIS, WEAP, HEC-RAS, and HEC-HMS for engineering drafting, catchment mapping, hydraulic simulation, water resources planning, flood-risk assessment, and data-driven infrastructure design. -
Academic Foundation in Hydraulic and Water Resource Engineering
Completed BSc Honours in Hydraulic and Water Resource Engineering at Dilla University, with academic training in fluid mechanics, open-channel hydraulics, catchment hydrology, water supply networks, and groundwater engineering.
