I'm Pitambar Mahato — a Software Engineer in Kathmandu, Nepal. I build scalable backend systems, AI-driven applications, and cloud-native services with Python, Django, Flask, and FastAPI, shipping on AWS and Azure with Docker and Kubernetes. I'm currently working on Healthcare AI at John Snow Labs — building LLM-driven platforms for medical systems.

About

A bit about me

Five-plus years of shipping production systems, with a focus on backend craft, AI, and clean infrastructure.

I'm a Software Engineer with strong experience building scalable backend systems, AI-powered applications, and cloud-native services using Python — Django, Flask, and FastAPI. I deploy and operate these services on AWS and Azure, with hands-on expertise in Docker, Kubernetes, Elasticsearch, Redis, PostgreSQL, and distributed data pipelines.

I've built LLM-based systems, chat history management platforms, and NLP solutions for the Nepali language. I'm passionate about machine learning, system design, and high-performance software engineering — with a strong focus on clean architecture, automation, and scalable infrastructure.
