Software Engineer & Security Researcher

Aakasmik Ghimire

Full-stack web and mobile engineer, moving deliberately into application security.

AG

I build responsive web applications and cross-platform mobile apps with React, Next.js and React Native, backed by Node.js, PostgreSQL and MongoDB. I've shipped e-commerce platforms, a hyper-local chat product and a bus-ticketing app end to end — payment gateways, geo-spatial queries, concurrent reservations and all. Lately I've been turning that build experience into an offensive one: reading my own code the way an attacker would, and working through the Web Security Academy to find out what I've been missing.
