Software Engineer. AI Builder. Technology Entrepreneur.
I am a software developer, creative technologist, and entrepreneur from Colombo, Sri Lanka with hands-on experience taking digital products from architecture to live production. I specialize in building full-stack web applications, integrating modern AI workflows (RAG, Gemini API, OpenAI), and engineering scalable backend systems with Next.js, Node.js, and MongoDB.
Beyond writing clean, maintainable code, I founded Corvento Technologies (evolved from Asteroid Technologies and Lycoryx Technologies) as the master entity operating DanumaAI, MemoAI, and a 74,000+ subscriber WhatsApp media network. Alongside leading Senior Web Development at Quizzygram and commercial operations at Past Papers Wiki, I have delivered international freelance engineering and creative projects on Fiverr and Upwork.
