01 · about

An engineer who builds with precision and leads with empathy.

Strategic Senior Flutter Developer with 4+ years specializing in high-security fintech, mobile banking, and digital wallets. I lead engineering teams toward scalable architecture and clean code — from Test-Driven Development and Agile leadership to complex backend integration — while staying devoted to digital security and seamless human experiences.

I work where security-critical engineering meets human-centred design — shipping fintech products trusted with people's money, while mentoring teams and serving communities back home in Bhaktapur.

Personal principles

~/beliefs.ts
  1. Secure code is an act of care — people trust it with their money.
  2. The best interface disappears; the user only notices what they wanted.
  3. Mentorship compounds — a reviewed pull request outlives the feature.
  4. Roots and reach are not opposites; Bhaktapur travels with me everywhere.
  5. Explain it so a twelve-year-old gets it — that's the real test of mastery.
  6. Ship slow, test first, and let reliability be the loudest feature.
