Umesh Wanigasekera
Sirimevan, aka Siri – often causing our own iOS devices to misbehave when we call Siri! – is a remarkable personality. His talents constantly scream for newer and tougher challenges, be they technical or social. In the span of 2 years that I’ve had the delight of interacting, he proved to be an invaluable asset with ability to sense both team’s social needs and technical prowess and adapting to situations with invaluable outcomes. Not only he never shied away from any challenges, he consistently seized opportunity to contribute at fitting conditions - a rare practice in current corporate world. Armed with his natural talents and acquired experience, skills and formal qualifications, I have no doubt he will be an indisputable force in the industry. Finally, a few words that come to mind to describe him would be clever, amiable, proactive, reliable and honest. I would be delighted to wish him the best and would gladly recommend him for any team to perform as member or lead.
