Hello there! I'm Manoj Abewardana, a passionate and experienced Tech Lead with a knack for solving technical problems and building innovative solutions. Welcome to my online portfolio, where I showcase my skills, experiences, and the exciting journey I've had in the world of technology.

With over 8 years of experience working across various companies, I have become adept at leveraging different technologies within PHP frameworks and implementing pure PHP with OOP concepts. My approach to system design is marked by creativity and a penchant for thinking outside the box. Prior to commencing a project, I conduct a thorough analysis of competitive systems, identifying key drawbacks to pave the way for innovative and superior solutions. Throughout my career, I have successfully built fully functional products, designed robust system architectures, and managed end-to-end product lifecycles, all developed from scratch to ensure optimal feature implementation.







I possess a diverse set of technical skills that make me a versatile developer. From PHP (OOP), HTML & CSS to API integration, Agile methodologies, and system troubleshooting, I have hands-on experience with various technologies. My proficiency extends to Laravel, Codeigniter, YII, and expertise in hybrid and mobile application development.
