Hi 👋, I'm Shashikant Shah

AI Automation Specialist · Full‑Stack Developer (MERN & Next.js) · Technical SEO / GEO / AEO Consultant

I started out as a software engineer, picked up growth marketing along the way, and now work in the space between the two — where most real business problems actually live. Based in Kathmandu, Nepal, I've spent the last 4+ years helping startups, agencies, and SMBs across Nepal, India, the US, UK, Australia, Canada, UAE, and Singapore ship faster, generate qualified pipeline, and prove what's working.

On any given day I'm usually building AI automations in n8n that connect OpenAI/ChatGPT into painful manual processes, developing the Next.js / MERN codebase behind it, and running the technical SEO, GEO & AEO work that gets it seen — in classic Google search and in AI Overviews, ChatGPT Search, Perplexity, and Gemini.

💡 Note: the "overall stats" and "top languages" cards from github-readme-stats are left out here — the public vercel.app demo instance is currently over its usage limit and returns broken images instead of rendering. If you want those cards back, self-host your own instance (free on Vercel, ~5 minutes) and swap in your own URL — that instance won't hit shared rate limits.

A few things from my portfolio:
