About Me

Hi, I'm Thilina Ashen Gamage

3x AWS (SCS, SAA, DVA) 🌩️ | Cloud & Big Data @ RMIT 🇦🇺 | Comp Sci @ UoM 🇱🇰

I'm a Lead Cloud Engineer currently based in Melbourne, Australia 🇦🇺.

Over the past 7+ years, I've designed and delivered cloud-native platforms in FinTech and Capital Markets domains across North America, Europe, and the UK 🇺🇸🇬🇧🇨🇦🇸🇪🇪🇺.

My work spans cloud architecture, AWS serverless and Kubernetes platforms, distributed systems, and everything DevOps — security, infrastructure as code, and SRE. I care deeply about reliability, cost efficiency, and the kind of clean infrastructure that lets teams ship without fear.

Sharing knowledge is a big part of who I am. My deep-dive guides on cloud architecture, DevOps, and systems internals have been read more than two million times. These days, I take on hands-on engineering and consulting engagements across cloud and platform work. If you're building something interesting in the cloud space, I'd love to hear about it.
