Hi, I'm Sashika
I've spent six years building for US enterprise clients in billing, healthcare and HR. These days I spend less time writing components and more time designing the patterns other engineers build on, reviewing their work, and making sure AI speeds the team up without lowering the bar.
The path so far
Always curious
Taking electronics apart and trying circuit diagrams to see how things work.
First software: a calculator
Found the O/L ICT textbook, built a calculator in VB.NET, then bought two books and kept going.
BSc Software Engineering, Plymouth
Plus Harvard's CS50 and a lot of evenings on Udacity and Udemy.
Sistack Loan ERP
Top 11 at the SLT ZeroOne Awards.

Associate Lead Software Engineer · Altrium

How I lead
Decisions on paper
Trade-offs written down before code. A client called my documentation the most detailed they'd received.
People over output
The go-to onboarding mentor for new graduates. 3 of 3 interns hired permanently.
Contracts, not complaints
When an API didn't fit, I proposed the contract, and the API team adopted it.
