Rusith TharinduThushan.Software engineerFull-stack by trade,security-minded by study.

I build products across the full stack — clean APIs, tight frontends, and the invisible layer in between. Currently deepening into security while shipping production software that holds up.

About

I work across the stack and care about the seams —where the API meets the UI, where trust assumptions break, where abstractions leak. Currently pursuing a Master's in Cyber Security, which mostly means I've started reading every system like something will go wrong.

I'm at my best collaborating on hard problems with people who have opinions. Good software is a team argument that ends well.
