Full-Stack Software Developer. I ship features into live production software — backend services, AI-powered web apps, and computer-vision systems — with several products already serving real users. I'm looking for software engineering roles where I can build things people depend on.

About

I build software people actually use — then ship it, watch it break, and make it better.

I'm a full-stack developer from Nepal. Most of what I know came from building and shipping for real users — production backend services, AI-powered web apps, and computer-vision systems, not just demos.

I founded Smart Nepal (Qsmarte), a platform connecting students to research mentors and funded opportunities, and I've shipped backend and AI-integration features into live production codebases as an intern. I like working close to the hard parts: real-time pipelines, LLM integration, and the seam where hardware meets software.

I'm heading to Texas State University for a B.S. in Computer Science, and I'm looking for software engineering roles where I can learn from strong engineers and build things people depend on.
