Hi, I’m Finan Weldemikael

Satellite & Geospatial Software Engineer | MSc Satellite Systems Engineering | RF, DSP & Applied AI in Remote Sensing


Who I Am

I bridge advanced software engineering with satellite systems and AI-driven geospatial analysis.
From RF front-ends and link budgets to cloud-native raster pipelines and remote sensing ML, I build systems that scale — both in orbit and on the ground.

  • 🛰️ MSc Satellite Systems Engineering (UK, 2025)
  • 👨‍💻 Python backend specialist (FastAPI, CI/CD, AWS)
  • 🤖 Remote sensing AI: self-supervised pretraining & flood mapping (SatMAE)
  • 📡 RF/DSP prototyping with MATLAB, GNU Radio, SDR (ADALM-PLUTO, USRP)

🛠️ My Toolbox

  • Software & Cloud: Python, FastAPI, Docker, Terraform, AWS (S3, ECS/EKS, Lambda, SageMaker), GitHub Actions
  • Geospatial & AI: Rasterio, xarray/rioxarray, Dask, GDAL, STAC, COG, Zarr, TensorFlow/Scikit-learn
  • RF & DSP: MATLAB/Simulink, GNU Radio, link budgets, modulation/classification, antenna design & testing
  • Datastores: Postgres/PostGIS, S3, GeoParquet

📂 Featured Work

  • 🌊 Few-Shot Flood Delineation → Cloud-native Sentinel-2 flood mapping pipelines with SatMAE pretraining + FastAPI inference 🔗

🎓 Background
