Sakshyam Baral
Founder & full-stack developer
Kathmandu, Nepal · coding since 2018
About.
Self-taught developer. I founded Laayo, food and grocery delivery in Eastern Nepal, and built nearly all of it: three mobile apps, a Go backend, the ops console, payments, live tracking and the servers it runs on. I also run the business. I'm now building Qora, payments for Nepali businesses.
How I work.
Team management
I lead the team behind Laayo: riders, store partners and the people who keep orders moving. I plan the week, split the work into clear tasks with one owner each, and keep everyone on one shared plan so nobody is stuck waiting. As Event Manager at JCI Nepal I run events with volunteer teams from plan to wrap-up.
Production-level code quality
Every change goes from tests to staging to production, never straight to live. I write typed Go and TypeScript, keep code small and readable, review security on each feature, and watch errors and performance after every release.
Reliability and communication
Laayo takes real orders and real payments every day, so I build for failure: health checks, alerts, backups and fast rollbacks. When something breaks I say so early, explain it in plain words and follow up with what changed.
