Chanaka Lakmal
PhD Student in Computer Science at University of Waterloo
Toronto, Canada
I am a PhD student in Computer Science at the University of Waterloo, advised by Prof. Khuzaima Daudjee. I completed my B.Sc. in Computer Science and Engineering with a First Class at the University of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka in 2018. I was an Associate Technical Lead at WSO2 Inc., where I was full-time contributing to the project Ballerina, an open-source programming language for the cloud with first-class support to write microservices that integrate APIs. I was mainly focusing on the cloud-native security architecture, microservices architecture, authentication, authorization, cryptography, and language security aspects. My projects have been recognized at prestigious events such as Microsoft Imagine Cup World Finals and National Best Quality ICT Awards (NBQSA) and have been covered by the local and international press. I love travelling, exploring new destinations, and cultures and capturing memories into beautiful pictures.
