Aayush Raut

I am a software engineering student based in Kathmandu, Nepal, building across native Android, full-stack web systems, and applied AI workflows. My strongest work sits at the intersection of product constraints and practical engineering: mobile apps with platform-level behavior, APIs backed by relational models, and AI features that are orchestrated through real application flows.

My projects span Kotlin and Jetpack Compose applications, React/Next.js frontends, Express/FastAPI/Rust services, PostgreSQL-backed domain models, browser extension workflows, and multimodal/LLM integrations. I care about architecture because the best portfolio evidence is not a list of technologies - it is how state, data, permissions, interfaces, and system boundaries work together.

Hackathons and college team projects have shaped how I build under uncertainty: scope the problem, verify assumptions quickly, divide work honestly, and ship something demonstrable. Outside engineering, chess and martial arts keep me close to disciplined thinking, pattern recognition, and long-term practice.
