Mero Shopping
Backend and payments engineering for Nepal's largest online store—thousands of SKUs, cross-border sourcing (Flipkart, Myntra), and checkout that holds up under real traffic.

Project overview
Mero Shopping was already a household name with a huge catalog—fashion, electronics, beauty, home—and cross-border pipelines from marketplaces like Flipkart and Myntra. The pain was in the engine room: inventory sync drifting under load, APIs slowing search and filters at peak times, and payments that should have been boring but weren't—failed webhooks, edge-case declines, and reconciliation gaps that showed up as abandoned carts and support tickets. We audited and fixed the backend and payments layer: hardened checkout with Stripe, closed webhook and idempotency holes, tightened stock updates against supplier feeds, and improved how high-traffic reads hit the database and cache. Shoppers still get the same storefront experience; what changed is reliability—fewer stuck orders, clearer payment outcomes, and a stack the team can run when volume spikes.
