Associate DevSecOps Engineer at Emojot securing AWS production systems and hardening SQS without disrupting email campaigns.

Message

At Emojot (Pvt) Ltd, I handle production-facing AWS security remediation across Development, Staging, Production, and management accounts. I hardened production SQS access with least-privilege permissions while preserving email campaigns, workflow notifications, SES events, and DLQ processing.

As a DevSecOps Engineer-Intern at Emojot (Pvt) Ltd, I restored a dormant AWS staging environment and implemented an ECS Spot and On-Demand capacity strategy that reduced EC2 costs by up to approximately 65%. I managed infrastructure with Terraform and started SQS security remediation in Development and Staging.

At Sri Lanka Telecom, I designed and implemented CI/CD pipelines for the eChannelling.com platform revamp, reducing deployment time from days of manual work to approximately seven minutes. I also containerized backend microservices with Docker and contributed to backend development using NestJS, PostgreSQL, and Prisma.
