Hi, I’m Shehan, a senior mobile developer with 6+ years of experience building high-scale apps for fintech, healthcare, and telecom. I specialize in Flutter, React Native, and Kotlin, delivering mobile experiences that serve millions of users with minimal crashes. I enjoy leading teams, shaping secure architectures, and driving CI/CD pipelines to accelerate delivery.
I’ve shipped end-to-end mobile apps from concept to production, implemented robust authentication and secure data handling, and partnered with product and QA to ensure scalability and performance. Outside of coding I love mentoring teammates, conducting workshops, and exploring AI-powered mobile features.
