Nepal's AI jobs cluster in software companies with AI features, outsourcing data work, and remote-first teams. All three hire proof over pedigree.
Steps
1Map the three markets
Local product companies, data/annotation outsourcing, and global remote roles - different bars, different pay.
2Build Nepal-relevant proof
Nepali NLP, agriculture/vision projects, automation case studies. Local relevance beats generic tutorials.
3Network visibly
Meetups, LinkedIn building-in-public, open-source contributions. Hidden jobs flow through people.
4Prepare for practical tests
Take-home ML tasks and live coding. Practise end-to-end builds under time.
Good to know: Salary bands vary wildly. Ask working professionals for current ranges before negotiating.
