senior full-stack engineer

I build the whole stack.
The screen, the API,
and the data underneath.

Seven years building web products end to end: React and Next.js on the front, Rails and PostgreSQL behind it. Lately I'm going deeper into infrastructure and AWS. Currently at Event Temple, remote from Metro Vancouver.

02 / about

I’m from Nepal, now in Metro Vancouver. I like working across the whole product, from the screen people use to the database behind it.

At Event Temple that has meant leading our API rewrite to JSON:API, building a migration engine that moved 1.5 million records without downtime, and co-leading the move from AngularJS to React and Next.js.

Right now I’m going deeper into backend and infrastructure, and studying for the AWS Developer – Associate exam.

    Event TempleSenior Full-Stack Engineer

    Hospitality SaaS. I build features end to end, from the database to the UI.

    • Shipped the Booking Engine, Proposals and Guest Portal end to end, part of $2M+ in multi-year contracts with hotel groups running 200+ properties.
    • Built a reusable data migration system that moves up to 1.5M records across relational schemas in transactions, so new clients onboard with zero downtime.
    • Led the Rails API's move to V2 on JSON:API, used by our frontend and by external integrators: resource design, versioned endpoints, one error shape.
    • Co-led a two-year AngularJS to React/Next.js migration, replacing the app piece by piece with no disruption to customers.
    • Diagnosed and fixed PostgreSQL table-level lock contention during a production schema migration, then wrote up safe concurrent index builds.
    • Mentor engineers and review pull requests across the Rails and React codebases, setting shared patterns adopted team-wide, plus Claude Code tooling for review, API scaffolding and tests.

    LegalfitFront-End Developer

    Led Vue 2 → Vue 3 with TypeScript, and the tools clients built with.

    • Standardized component patterns and type safety across the migration.
    • Built a drag-and-drop form builder with rich text editing, working directly with clients on requirements.
    • Wired builders to Django REST APIs with validation and live editing.
  3. 2019 - 2021Lalitpur, NP

    TekvortexSoftware Engineer

    Reporting tools in Rails, PostgreSQL and Angular, from the schema to the screen.

    • Extended Rails and PostgreSQL APIs: schema design, views, indexes and query tuning for relational reporting.
    • Designed a Rails and Angular database client that let non-technical users browse and manage data without SQL.
    • Built a D3.js dependency map that surfaced relationships across large client datasets, previously traced by hand in SQL.
