Summary
Anup Dhakal is a full-stack software engineer with nine years of hands-on experience building scalable web applications, primarily using JavaScript, React, NodeJS, and SQL. A self-taught tinkerer since age 14, he blends product-minded frontend design with backend performance optimizations—having cut large export times from hours to minutes and reduced memory use by ~30% in production. He’s shipped features across startups and SaaS teams, led frontend efforts, mentored dozens of interns, and improved engineering processes and CI/CD for smoother client onboarding. Comfortable switching languages and domains (Elm, Elixir, Rust, blockchain), he advocates for strong developer experience, accessibility, and pragmatic trade-off-driven decisions. Based in Kathmandu, he now freelances, offering feature development, code reviews, and database/API optimizations while staying open to new stacks and infrastructure challenges.
