ABOUT XYLONTECH
Led in Kirkland, built with our team in Nepal
XylonTech helps climate and mission-driven organizations build technology their own teams can run, improve and afford.
Enterprise experience • Global collaboration • Purposeful technology
WHO WE ARE
Purpose Gives Technology Direction.
Every organization working to improve our world eventually reaches a point where technology either accelerates its mission—or begins to slow it down.
XylonTech exists to help at that threshold. We work with organizations navigating complex ideas, aging systems, disconnected workflows, limited delivery capacity, and the rapidly changing possibilities of AI.
Our role is not simply to build software. It is to help our partners create digital foundations that are useful, resilient, scalable, and aligned with the people and missions they serve.
We are especially aligned with organizations working across environmental resilience, social impact, public systems, community well-being, research, education, and responsible innovation.
Human-Centered · Secure by Design · Built for Lasting Impact
Founded through trust
Santosh Aryal founded XylonTech to build software across borders, with lasting client relationships.
Built across two countries
For years, our team has run critical operations software for a U.S. government contractor in environmental remediation and disaster recovery.
Now focused on climate
Under Salana Adhikari’s leadership, we bring that enterprise experience to the organizations protecting land, water and communities.
FOUNDER
The Vision That Started XylonTech
Santosh founded XylonTech with technical depth, determination, and a belief in the possibilities created when people across borders build together. His vision extended beyond delivering software. He believed in creating trusted relationships, creating career pathways across the United States and Nepal, and building a company through which professional growth and shared prosperity could travel in more than one direction. Santosh’s legacy continues through the people he brought together, the standards he helped establish, and XylonTech’s commitment to carry the company forward with integrity, courage, and care.
Build with trust. Create opportunity. Keep moving forward together.
EXECUTIVE LEADERSHIP
Salana Adhikari
Chief Executive Officer
Salana has spent 21 years building technology products and teams, at BlueCross BlueShield, Microsoft and Qualtrics, before leading XylonTech. She was born and raised in Nepal and is completing an MA in Integral Ecologies at the California Institute of Integral Studies, which is why the Root-to-Canopy™ Method starts with how systems, people and places connect. She leads every sprint herself, from the first conversation to the pilot plan. Engineers and designers join once you’ve approved the direction.

SOCIAL IMPACT INITIATIVE
Currently incubated within XylonTech
Building Pathways Beyond Technology
BhaiBahini is a social-impact mentorship initiative connecting young people in Nepal with trusted Nepali professionals and diaspora mentors for structured guidance, learning, and meaningful connection.
The initiative grew from a shared vision held by Santosh Aryal and Salana Adhikari: that knowledge, experience, and opportunity should move across borders—and that Nepali professionals around the world can help the next generation approach important life and career decisions with greater clarity and confidence.
BhaiBahini is being developed within XylonTech with support from our product, design, engineering, and operations teams. Over time, it is intended to grow into its own community-centered organizational home.
Learn. Connect. Decide. Grow.
A SHARED PATH
Across places. Between people.

LOOKING FORWARD
Building a Technology Company Worth Becoming
XylonTech is growing with intention: strengthening our engineering practice, deepening our work with climate-aware and mission-driven organizations, developing responsible uses of AI, and creating opportunities for people to contribute to mission-driven work across borders.
We are not trying to become the largest technology company. We are building toward becoming a trusted, capable, and enduring partner for organizations whose work matters.
Let’s Build Something That Strengthens What Matters.
If your organization is navigating a complex technology decision, modernizing an important system, exploring responsible AI, or seeking a long-term delivery partner, we would welcome the conversation.
