Hi, I'm Dinesh Rijal

Backend Developer

I design and ship production-grade backends, multi-tenant SaaS systems, and scalable APIs using Django REST Framework, FastAPI, PostgreSQL, and Docker. Real-world experience building systems handling concurrency, async tasks, and high availability at NIC Nepal. Open for backend roles, freelance projects, and API contracts.

About Me

I'm Dinesh Rijal, a third-year BSc. CSIT student at Tribhuvan University and a Backend Developer with hands-on production experience at NIC Nepal. I specialize in building systems that actually hold up under pressure multi-tenant SaaS architectures, race-condition-safe inventory engines using select_for_update(), and async task pipelines powered by Celery + Redis.

My stack centers on Django, Django REST Framework, FastAPI, PostgreSQL, and Docker. I care about clean API design, proper concurrency control, and deployments that don't surprise you at 2 AM. Whether it's a containerized microservice, a JWT-secured REST API, or a background job system, I build it with maintainability and real-world constraints in mind. What sets me apart is the combination of academic depth and production exposure I've shipped systems alongside professional software teams, not just in side projects. Let's build something great together.
