👋🏻
नमस्ते, Hello, Hola 👋🏻
I'm Sabin Thapa.
A Software Engineer from Dhulikhel, Nepal, and a Computer Engineering graduate from Kathmandu University (2018 Batch).

About Me

I am a passionate Full-Stack Software Engineer with expertise in building modern, scalable, and high-performing web and mobile applications. I hold a bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering, where I developed a strong foundation in both frontend and backend development. Over the years, I have worked on complex projects, leading the implementation of new features, improving user experience, and managing end-to-end deployments.

My technical skills include working with React, Next.js, Node.js, TypeScript, and cloud services like AWS. I enjoy solving challenging problems, writing clean and maintainable code, and ensuring the products I work on meet high performance and security standards.

Beyond my professional work, I’m an active community contributor. As a former GitHub Campus Expert, I’ve organized and mentored various hackathons, workshops, and open-source events across Nepal, empowering students and developers to grow their skills and collaborate on impactful projects.

I’m also a quick learner who enjoys exploring new technologies and sharing knowledge with others. When I’m not coding, I like to watch movies, discover new music, and dive into fun challenges — for example, I’ve memorized 100 digits of Pi!
