Who am I?

Not just my favourite Jackie-Chan movie, but also a question I ask

Hey there, I'm Milinda, but you can call me Mili. I'm not just your average coder; I'm the person who brings a blend of technical prowess and a friendly demeanor to the table. I'm not just about writing lines of code; I'm about connecting with people and creating digital solutions that resonate.

With a dynamic background in web development and a comprehensive skill set that spans React, NextJS, TypeScript, and more, I've embarked on a journey to bring innovation to the digital landscape.

My adventure kicked off as a Junior Software Developer at Ember, where I took charge of the company website's management and enhancement. Eager to tackle challenges, I engaged in full-stack development, mastering technologies like JavaScript, NextJS, ReactJS, and TypeScript. I find joy in the art of transforming design visions into functional, seamless user experiences.

As an Information Technology Specialist at Lanistar Limited, I displayed unwavering drive, orchestrating comprehensive IT support and spearheading network infrastructure development. My commitment to excellence extended to ensuring regulatory compliance with data protection standards. At Lucas Systems, I brought my passion for learning to the forefront, optimizing warehouse operations through the mastery of C#, SQL, and Silverlight.

Armed with a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, I am fueled by a relentless willingness to learn and adapt. I thrive in collaborative environments and approach each project with a curiosity that fuels continuous improvement. Eager to contribute my dynamic skill set and enthusiasm for learning, I am poised to make impactful contributions to innovative technology projects.

Judith Navarro

Digital Marketing Manager

Over Mili's time at Ember he managed and built a big chunk of our website. I worked closely with him on numerous website related projects during that time and was always impressed by his ability to solve any problem thrown at him. He then moved to the Product team and did some great work in one of our biggest feature releases to date. He's also a great team player, has a very positive attitude and is always keen to improve and find ways to make his work more efficient. Mili will be an asset to any team and will make an impact on anyone he works with!

Milinda (or Mili as everyone knows him) is a pleasure to work with. He's a dedicated and curious developper, always keen to learn more and improve his craft. Over his time at Ember, he went from looking after our website to working on our core application and delivering key projects at Ember. Moreover, Mili's a fantastic team player. He brings a lot of joy, humour and positive energy day-in, day-out, and everyone working closely with him here has come to see him as a friend. I cannot recommend him enough as a strong addition to any team.
