About me

I'm a software engineer based in Sri Lanka with a BSc in Computer Science from the University of Colombo School of Computing. My core is Java Spring Boot backends with Angular and React frontends.

At Aasa IT Solutions I worked on a MOSIP-based government passport system and a sand mining licence system, and I set up CI/CD with Jenkins, GitHub Actions and ArgoCD, with SonarQube quality gates.

Now I freelance on live platforms for a retail client, including AI-powered semantic search, and I'm growing into DevOps and cloud work. I'm looking for a role where I can build reliable software and own how it runs in production.
