About

I build practical systems and explain them clearly.

I'm Theekshana Prabodha, an ICT learner and builder from Sri Lanka. I hold the NDICT (NVQ Level 5) and I'm studying for the BIT at UCSC.

My story

I learn by building things that someone actually uses. At the Ceylon Electricity Board I turned a paper ledger into an app with real business rules. For my NDICT I built a supermarket POS that starts with one Docker command, and a book of networking labs you can open and break.

On my own Linux machine I troubleshoot problems down to the cause and write them up. TheekMind is where I share that, in plain words, so the next person saves time.

I'm looking for a junior software, web or DevOps role, in Sri Lanka or remote.
