About me
I'm Piragenth, a Bachelor of ICT undergraduate at South Eastern University of Sri Lanka, based in Jaffna.
I like working across the whole stack — from hardware up. On RideShield, a smart motorcycle helmet that reached the finals of IoTrix 2.0, that meant ESP32 firmware, a crash state machine driven by IMU and GPS data, camera nodes and a Kotlin Android app. On FoodBridge, it meant a MERN platform with five role-based portals, JWT authentication, Docker and CI.
Maths is the other thread. I built a Java tool that animates 2×2 matrix transformations so eigenvectors become something you can see, and completed Imperial College London’s Mathematics for Machine Learning: Linear Algebra course.
Away from the keyboard I turn photos into laser-engraved portraits and pen-plotter art with G-code.
I'm open to work, internships and collaborations — email is the best way to reach me.
