01 / Profile

Academic & Professional Profile

I am a Software Engineer and data researcher driven by an investigative curiosity to untangle complex problems. I am actively seeking opportunities specializing in Data Science and Analytics.

My technical journey is rooted in the reality of real-world data. Through my work in civic technology at Open Knowledge Nepal and enterprise data extraction at Grepsr, I have focused on the meticulous groundwork: engineering scalable web crawlers, building robust ETL pipelines, and transforming noisy, fragmented information into transparent, actionable datasets. I find deep satisfaction in the heavy lifting required to extract clear insights from chaotic systems.

As the tech landscape shifts toward increasingly opaque AI models, I believe the integrity of the underlying data matters more than ever. I am looking to channel my deep analytical mindset into advanced problem-solving. My goal is to apply my background in data engineering to build transparent models and tools that decode complex behavioral and societal trends through advanced academic research.
