Senior🎓
Top SchoolKeshan Sodimana is an Associate Architect in Machine Learning at LSEG with 14 years of hands-on experience building deep learning and NLP systems for both product and public-good initiatives. He blends enterprise ML architecture with startup grit from co-founding Siyomek and OpenData Sri Lanka, where he championed open data and localization efforts. At Google he led launches and engineering work to bring Sinhala language support to Translate, TTS, ASR and input methods, and authored text-normalization components for low-resource languages that were open-sourced.

An avid traveler and history buff, he is also curious about quantum physics, which reflects a broader appetite for learning beyond immediate technical domains.
