01 · About

A student-engineer building useful things.

Currently pursuing my Bachelor in Electronics & Communication Engineering at Nepal Engineering College.

Hi — I'm Narayan Pokharel, an Electronics and Communication Engineering student from Bhaktapur, Nepal. I'm passionate about turning ideas into shipped products that solve real problems for real people.

My work lives where AI, mobile development, and embedded systems meet — especially in agriculture, healthcare, and brain-computer interfaces. I love going from a rough whiteboard sketch to a polished Flutter app or a working EEG-driven prototype.

Right now I'm focused on improving AI-powered tools for farmers, developing EEG-based intelligent systems, and going deeper on advanced Flutter and backend integration.

"I'm interested in shipping over showing off — useful tools for real people, especially the ones tech usually forgets."

A working principle
2.5 · What I do

Services I can deliver.

From idea on a napkin to a polished build — here's how I can help.

Flutter App Development

Cross-platform mobile apps with clean UI, offline-first thinking, and Firebase / OAuth integration baked in.

Flutter · Dart · Firebase · Provider

AI & ML Integration

Practical AI features — chatbots, image classification, voice, recommendations — wired into apps that ship to real users.

Python · TensorFlow · OpenAI · Gemini

EEG & Signal Processing

BCI prototypes and DSP pipelines — from filtering raw EEG to classifying intent with neural nets.

Python · NumPy · SciPy · MNE

Embedded & IoT

Microcontroller firmware for sensors, antennas, and connected devices — useful especially for agri-tech in rural settings.

C/C++ · Arduino · ESP32 · Sensors

Landing Pages & Web UI

Fast, modern, mobile-first websites for products, portfolios, and small businesses — built clean, deployed fast.

HTML · CSS · JavaScript · Vercel

Technical Consultation

Architecture reviews, tech-stack picking, project scoping — useful for startups and student teams just starting out.

Architecture · Strategy · Mentoring
03 · Process

How I work with you.

A short, honest process — no waterfall theatre, no vague PMing. Four phases, fast loops, real shipping.

Discover

A short call to understand the problem, the users, the constraint. I'd rather scope down and ship than scope up and stall.

Design

Quick wireframes, then mid-fidelity mocks in Figma. We agree on the shape before code starts — saves weeks later.

Build

Iterative weekly sprints. You see real progress every week, not a black-box reveal at the end. Ship-able from week one.

Deliver

Deploy, document, train. Plus a 30-day window where I'm on tap for bug fixes and small adjustments. Trust over transactions.

04 · Experience

Kind words from collaborators.

A few notes from people I've shipped alongside — mentors, teammates, and clients who trusted me with their ideas.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★

Narayan combined product instinct with engineering rigour from day one. He shipped the first Khetala build faster than anyone expected — and made it actually usable for farmers, not just demo-ready.

Rajesh Bhattarai
Mentor · Agri-Tech
★ ★ ★ ★ ★

Rare to find a student-engineer who balances depth in signal processing with the patience to ship real Flutter apps. Narayan is one of the most self-driven juniors I've worked with at NEC.

Dr. Sunita Pradhan
Faculty · NEC Bhaktapur
★ ★ ★ ★ ★

Hired Narayan for a freelance Flutter MVP. Clear communicator, fair scoping, and the UI he delivered punched well above the budget. We've since handed him two more projects.

What I'm doing right now.

Inspired by Derek Sivers' /now page — a snapshot of what's actually in motion this season.

Live · Updated May 2026

Final year of engineering, shipping in parallel.

I'm in my final semesters at Nepal Engineering College, balancing thesis work with active builds. Aiming for graduate studies abroad — Germany is high on the list.

  • 🌾Shipping Khetala v2 — adding an offline AI assistant and Nepali voice input so farmers without strong connectivity still get useful advice.
  • 🧠Writing my thesis on EEG signal classification using lightweight neural networks — focused on running inference on consumer-grade hardware.
  • 🇩🇪Learning German (A1 → A2) for graduate-school applications. Built my own trilingual app to make the daily practice stick.
  • 📡Researching antenna design for low-cost IoT devices targeted at remote agricultural monitoring.
  • 🎓Applying to master's programmes in EE / AI / Computational Neuroscience — Germany, Netherlands, and South Korea on the shortlist.
  • ☕Always open to coffee chats with founders, fellow students, and engineers working on agri-tech or healthcare in Nepal.
