कुशल सापकोटा

I build systems that go all the way down — from the web app to the router, the radio and the drone.

L1 · Interface

Products people actually use

I build front-ends in React, Next.js and TypeScript, backed by Node.js, NestJS and Go — dashboards, client platforms and the admin side of everything below.

  • Aarambha Computer Damak
  • Bhairav SMS console
  • Next.js · NestJS · Go

L2 · Infrastructure

Servers I run myself

A Proxmox VE lab on a Dell PowerEdge T130, VPS nodes across providers, Docker, Coolify and PM2 — tied together with MikroTik routing and WireGuard.

  • Proxmox VE
  • Debian / Ubuntu Server
  • MikroTik RouterOS
  • WireGuard

L3 · Telecom

Messages that have to arrive

Bhairav SMS is my A2P routing, OTP and CPaaS platform speaking SMPP — every message traced to its route, delivery receipt, cost and the client's credit.

  • SMPP
  • A2P / OTP
  • DLR & billing
  • SIP · Asterisk · FreePBX

L4 · Radio

Below the network, the spectrum

I do signal analysis and SDR with HackRF One, CC1101, NRF24L01+, RFID and GPS modules — including an ESP32 OpenDroneID sniffer that plots nearby drones on a radar display.

  • HackRF One
  • CC1101 · NRF24
  • ESP32 CYD
  • OpenDroneID radar

L5 · Airspace

Things that fly — and stopping them

As CTO of G Robotics I work on counter-drone systems, AI and VTOL hybrid platforms. Off the clock I fly FPV — a DJI Avata 2 and a BetaFPV Meteor75 Pro over ELRS.

  • Counter-drone
  • VTOL hybrid
  • FPV · ELRS
  • DJI Avata 2
