About Viraj Silva
As a seasoned technology leader, entrepreneur, inventor, and investor, I am passionate about driving innovation and delivering transformative, industry-leading solutions.I have a proven track record of spearheading multi-billion-dollar initiatives, including architecting the world\'s largest private cloud capable of delivering hundreds of terabits per second. Leading a diverse team of over 150 professionals—spanning Architects, Product Managers, Program Managers, Software Developers, and Engineers—I successfully brought this vision to life.One of my career milestones was leading the migration of 30+ million live enterprise and consumer customers during the Sprint and T-Mobile merger. This complex project spanned 10+ products and 100+ data centers. I also pioneered a zero-touch operational framework that enhanced efficiency by 60% and achieved over 75% resource savings.In response to the global pandemic, I co-founded a medical billing company to address the growing healthcare needs while creating employment opportunities for over 50 individuals in Sri Lanka, a region heavily impacted by economic challenges.Additionally, I hold multiple patents and have published extensively in the areas of mobile network security and quality of service, reinforcing my commitment to advancing the technology landscape.Let’s connect to collaborate on innovative opportunities and transformative projects.
