Senior🎓
Top SchoolSalitha Chathuranga is an Engineering Manager and technical lead with nine years of hands-on experience building and operating Java-based, cloud-native backend systems. Currently leading engineering at Sysco LABS Sri Lanka, he blends architecture and delivery responsibilities—designing technical solutions, owning major epics, and guiding migrations to AWS and modern API platforms. His background spans Play and Spring Boot services, Kafka integrations, observability with Datadog, and CI/CD automation (Jenkins, k6), with a consistent emphasis on testing, security and performance. A former team lead at Zilingo and contributor to multiple production dashboards and deployment pipelines, he mentors junior engineers and drives adoption of best practices across SRE and Dev teams. Beyond coding, he’s an avid tech blogger and early adopter who has initiated platform-wide improvements (APIC 3.0, shared Jenkins libraries) that quietly reduced operational friction.
