Bio
Deepa "Dave" Basnayake
I recruited Chinthana to OzNet and it was an absolute pleasure working with him for last few months. He is a calculated risk taker, quick problem solver and easy to work with person. I found this to be incredibly valuable in working with him, as it allows him (and for those who work with him) the ability to explore and understand nearly all possible perspectives for any kind of networking solution and for complex technical issues. He is a hard worker and value creator for the whole company. I believe he was one of the best Engineer for OzNet. He will be an asset to any organization.
