About me

Ramchandra Shahi Thakuri

Full Stack Engineer & Regional Team Lead

NepalMorphMarket6+ yrs

I'm Ram -- a software engineer and Regional Team Lead based in Nepal. I've been building production software since 2018, with a core stack of Django and React. Right now I lead MorphMarket's Nepal engineering team: setting technical direction, mentoring engineers, and staying hands-on with the code.

I'm especially interested in AI-assisted developer tooling and workflow design. I care about engineering craft, clean architecture, and systems built to last.

What drives me

Engineering craft

I write code I want to maintain in five years -- clear architecture, clean APIs, and systems that explain themselves.

Mentorship and delivery

Growing engineers matters, and so does shipping. Strong teams compound when people understand both the why and the how.

AI as leverage

LLMs are tools, not magic. I care about practical workflows, clear tradeoffs, and reliable systems.
