Outhone Bounkhoun
Full-Stack Software Enginner
Entrepreneur at heart, I help organizations build reliable, scalable, and intuitive applications that support long-term growth.
Based in the Reno-Tahoe area.
I’m a full-stack software engineer with a product mindset, and I focus on building software that’s easy to use and supports the goals of organizations. As a founding engineer on multiple startups, I’ve learned how to balance hands-on development with long-term product thinking, helping teams ship features that are practical, scalable, and aligned with what users actually need.
Over the past few years, I’ve grown into full-stack work by strengthening my backend, infrastructure, and security skills. I’ve also been exploring AI and machine learning to understand how these technologies can support smarter and more efficient software.
When I’m not working, I like to be outdoors. I enjoy playing sports, mountain biking, hiking, and spending time with friends away from our screens.
