Hi! I'm Nisala Kalupahana.
I currently work for Saikat Chakrabarti, where I'm building software to help progressives win elections. Formerly at Neuralink.
I live in NYC. Please reach out if you want to meet up in person!
I love building things, especially when there's some physical aspect (robotics, IoT, etc.) or reverse engineering involved. Definitely don't shy away from building a good website, though. Check out what I'm building on my GitHub.
On the side, I run a startup called baseline, a non-profit developing a journaling and mood tracking app designed for data-driven people.
I'm just starting this blog (Jan '26), so there isn't much here just yet, but I'm hoping that changes soon.
