The engineer behind the models.

I'm Amalsha Fernando — a remote AI/ML Engineer specializing in large language model systems, retrieval-augmented generation, and multi-agent orchestration. My work sits at the intersection of rigorous engineering and emergent AI capabilities.

At EchonLabs, I architect agentic pipelines for Sinhala language processing and have built enterprise-scale communication platforms handling 10,000+ daily interactions across voice, email, and messaging. I care deeply about AI observability, hallucination mitigation, and pushing the boundaries of what production LLM systems can reliably do.

With a BSc in Information Technology from SLIIT, a peer-reviewed publication in autonomous systems, and a self-compiled Sinhala TTS dataset — a rare asset in South Asian NLP — I bring both academic depth and practical delivery to every engagement.

Remote-first by design. My UTC+5:30 timezone works naturally with US afternoon, EU morning, and APAC schedules — no timezone friction.
