Le-roy Karunaratne is a Vancouver-based founder and seasoned technology leader with 11 years building cross-platform applications, AR/VR experiences, and production-grade backend services. He founded Uprooted Software, shipping an Apple-featured educational AR app and a data-to-React tool used by financial and real-estate clients, while also driving Unity-based 3D and VR products. His background spans hands-on engineering and people leadership—from rescuing delayed game projects at Unity to overhauling multi-factor authentication and observability at scale for telecom clients. Comfortable moving between prototype-driven creative work and hardened cloud services, he also has a track record of mentoring teams and reducing development toil. An unexpected strength is translating complex spreadsheet logic into interactive web apps, enabling domain experts to expose calculations as live UIs without heavy engineering overhead.
