Gavin Anjitha
@gavinanjitha
I build and lead AI-powered production systems from customer problem to reliable deployment.
Sri LankaWhat I'm looking for
At Orfium, I own architecture and technical direction for a revenue-critical music copyright platform operating around the clock across global time zones. I lead the practices behind reliable releases, testing, on-call coverage, and scalable growth as the platform expands into automated claim pipelines.
Previously, I led backend and frontend engineers at Orfium and increased claimability from 16.5% to 25%. At Orel IT, I delivered AI products end to end across frontend, backend, ML, and data pipelines, turning ambiguous client problems into production-critical systems.
I also co-founded Bellpepper, building its restaurant management platform from zero to daily production use in 65+ outlets across Sri Lanka. Iām most effective where the specification is still unclear, working from customer needs through production systems that work inside the business, not just in a demo.
