# Kumuditha Tharinda Liyanage

> Software Engineering Student & Full-Stack Developer based in Colombo, Sri Lanka. Open to software engineering internships.

I am a final-semester HND Software Engineering student at the National Institute of Business Management (NIBM) in Colombo, Sri Lanka. I build across the whole stack — Flutter and native Android apps, React and Next.js platforms, Java backends, Swift macOS utilities and ESP32 IoT systems — and I am looking for a first professional engineering role.

## Projects

- [Navora](https://kumuditha.tharinda.dev/projects/navora): AI-planned journeys with real routing and live place data. A cross-platform Flutter travel planner for local Sri Lankan travellers: Gemini generates the itinerary, OSRM does the routing, Overpass finds the places, and the map keeps working when the signal does not. Stack: Flutter, Dart, Firebase AI Logic, Gemini, Google Maps, OSRM, Overpass API, Firebase, Supabase. Source: https://github.com/mr-kumuditha/Navora.
- [MacPulse](https://kumuditha.tharinda.dev/projects/macpulse): Production-grade macOS system optimizer, publicly released. A shipped, publicly released macOS utility: junk cleanup, duplicate detection, live performance monitoring, startup item management and app uninstalling — built in Swift 5.9 and SwiftUI with a CircleCI pipeline and StoreKit 2 purchases. Stack: Swift, SwiftUI, MVVM, Swift Actors, Combine, Swift Charts, SMAppService, StoreKit 2, CircleCI. Source: https://github.com/mr-kumuditha/MacPulse.
- [Rehearsal](https://kumuditha.tharinda.dev/projects/rehearsal): An API reliability workbench for distributed-system failures. A fault-injection lab that runs real HTTP traffic through sandbox inventory, payment and delivery services to reproduce timeouts, duplicate events and rate limits — then proves that idempotent recovery actually fixes them. Stack: TypeScript, Next.js, React, Node.js, SQLite, Playwright, Docker, Vercel, DigitalOcean. Live: https://rehearsal.tharinda.dev. Source: https://github.com/mr-kumuditha/rehearsal.
- [Fixora](https://kumuditha.tharinda.dev/projects/fixora): Role-based device repair and service management for Android. One Android app connecting customers, technicians, branch managers and administrators: GPS branch matching, live repair-status tracking and photo upload — designed, built and delivered inside a two-day assignment window. Stack: Kotlin, Jetpack Compose, Android SDK, Firebase, Supabase, SQLite, GPS, Material 3. Source: https://github.com/mr-kumuditha/fixora-mobile-app.
- [IoT Safety Monitoring System](https://kumuditha.tharinda.dev/projects/iot-safety): A smart safety helmet for underground miners. A wearable ESP32 helmet that tracks a miner's zone, gas levels, temperature and falls — streaming to a live supervisor dashboard and firing Telegram alerts when a reading crosses the line. Stack: ESP32, C++, Arduino, RFID MFRC522, DHT11, MQ-135, MPU6050, Firebase Realtime Database, TypeScript, Telegram Bot API. Live: https://minelivemonitor.systems/. Source: https://github.com/mr-kumuditha/IoT-Safety-Monitoring-System.
- [DevPilot Studio](https://kumuditha.tharinda.dev/projects/devpilot-studio): Open-source Claude Code plugin and CLI engine. A POSIX-shell plugin that puts live session metrics, usage analytics and rate-limit monitoring into the Claude Code status line — no runtime, no install ceremony, just shell. Stack: POSIX Bash, Shell, jq, Node.js, MCP, ShellCheck, GitHub Actions. Source: https://github.com/mr-kumuditha/devpilot-studio.
- [Sinhala Subtitle Converter](https://kumuditha.tharinda.dev/projects/sinhala-subtitle): AI-powered SRT translation that keeps every timestamp intact. An AI SRT converter and translator with batch processing and optimised API usage — subtitle timestamps survive the round trip, which is the part naive translation always breaks. Stack: TypeScript, React, Tailwind CSS, SRT parsing, Batch processing, AI translation. Live: https://sisub.work.gd/. Source: https://github.com/mr-kumuditha/Sinhala-Subtitle-Converter.
- [Ever After Wedding](https://kumuditha.tharinda.dev/projects/ever-after-wedding): Wedding planning and management platform. A TypeScript wedding management platform covering vendors, guests, budget and timeline — deployed on Vercel and built to survive the one day it has to work. Stack: TypeScript, React, Vercel, Full-stack, Responsive UI. Live: https://ever-after-wedding.vercel.app. Source: https://github.com/mr-kumuditha/ever-after-wedding.
- [EventHub](https://kumuditha.tharinda.dev/projects/eventhub): Event management and ticket booking system. A TypeScript frontend over a Java backend: event listings, ticket booking and a clean admin path, built as an enterprise application development project. Stack: TypeScript, React, Vite, Java, REST APIs. Source: https://github.com/mr-kumuditha/EAD2.
