About me

What do you work on?

I’m a Lead Software Engineer working mainly in PHP, Laravel and WordPress. I build web applications, payment integrations and WordPress platforms, and I also set up and run the hosting and infrastructure behind them.

Bhaktapur, Nepal (GMT+5:45). I’ve been working remotely with overseas teams since 2012.

Since March 2026 I’ve been working independently, mainly for the Australian mortgage businesses MortgageMD and Rest Assured Finance. Before that I was Lead Software Engineer at ACT360 for nearly 10 years.

Remote and international work

PHP, Laravel, WordPress, WooCommerce, MySQL, JavaScript, REST APIs, PHPUnit and Flutter. For infrastructure: AWS, Google Cloud, SiteGround, Cloudflare, Docker, and Git with GitLab.

At ACT360 I built open-source WooCommerce gateways for Fonepay, Khalti and connectIPS. They’re published on WordPress.org with hundreds of active installs, and were used for KFC Nepal’s online ordering. An order is marked paid only after the payment provider confirms it. I also connected eSewa and Khalti payments to Ads Manager.

Yes, with Flutter. I built the mobile app for LMS360, ACT360’s leave management system. Most of my work is on the web.

Yes. I set up and run hosting on AWS, Google Cloud and SiteGround, handle migrations, DNS and email records, backups, and Google Workspace and Microsoft 365. More on the Infrastructure & Operations page.

Yes. At ACT360 I was lead developer for Laxmi Sunrise Bank from 2017 to 2026, and I built sites and data systems for Nabil Invest, Siddhartha Capital and NIMB Ace Capital. I also worked on Karjabazaar, a digital loan marketplace launched with Standard Chartered Bank as its first lending partner, and built 30+ mortgage calculators for Home Loan Experts.

Leadership

Yes. At ACT360 I led a team of up to 10 developers at its largest. I ran hiring interviews, performance reviews and mentoring. I also set the team’s coding guidelines, Git branching rules and code review process on GitLab.

At ACT360 I was the main technical contact for clients such as banks and capital-market firms. I do the same now for MortgageMD and Rest Assured Finance. I turn business needs into clear technical tasks, explain trade-offs in plain language, and deal with vendors such as hosting, email and domain providers on the client’s behalf.
