I’m Chamil, a tech enthusiast with nearly two decades of experience designing and developing POS, ERP, and inventory solutions. I’m originally from Sri Lanka and now based in Canberra with my family, continuing my journey in technology and creative problem-solving.

My background spans SQL Server development, C# and WPF applications, and building complete business systems that support day-to-day retail and service operations. I enjoy turning complex requirements into clear, reliable, and efficient software that genuinely helps people work better.

Moving to Australia has opened a new chapter for me, and I’m using this space to share my work, ideas, and ongoing projects. Technology keeps evolving, and I love being part of that journey - learning, improving, and creating with purpose.

EXPERIENCE

Head of Development

2017 to Present

2017

As Head of Development, I led the complete software engineering function - from system design and architecture to delivery, support, and team leadership. I guided developers, managed project priorities, and ensured each solution met business needs with performance, reliability, and scalability in mind. I also worked closely with clients and management, turning real requirements into practical, high quality product features.

Technical Lead

2015 - 2017

2015

In my role as Technical Lead, I provided hands-on technical direction while supporting the team through complex development tasks. I oversaw code quality, reviewed designs, introduced best practices, and helped developers solve critical technical problems. I acted as the bridge between management and the engineering team, making sure the technical vision aligned with the overall project goals.

Senior Software Engineer

2008 - 2015

2008

As a Senior Software Engineer, I designed and developed key modules across POS, ERP, and inventory systems. I specialised in SQL Server, C# Windows/WPF applications, system integration, and reporting. My responsibilities included analysing requirements, building efficient solutions, optimising databases, and providing long-term support to clients across multiple industries.

Software Engineer

2006 - 2008

2006

In my early role as a Software Engineer, I focused on application development, database programming, troubleshooting, and implementing customer-specific features. I worked closely with clients, understood real operational needs, and built practical solutions that improved day-to-day business workflows.


TECHNICAL EXPERTISE

I specialise in full-stack POS and ERP development with deep experience across SQL Server, C#, WPF, and Crystal Reports. My core strength is designing stable, high performance retail systems that operate reliably across multi-outlet and warehouse environments. I handle the full engineering lifecycle - architecture, coding, optimisation, deployments, integrations, and long-term production support. I also mentor teams, improve engineering standards, and work directly with clients to translate operational challenges into practical, efficient, and scalable software solutions.
