About_

# stdout

I am a Kathmandu-based team lead and full-stack developer with more than 8 years of experience building web applications for international teams. My core stack is React, Node.js, Python, and TypeScript, applied across SaaS delivery, platform modernization, and production operations.

I work across architecture, team leadership, DevOps, and automation, including AI agent workflows for engineering teams. Outside client work, I enjoy setting up homelabs and self-hosted environments. I value clear systems, practical documentation, and delivery practices that keep both teams and codebases maintainable.
