Zonova Tech
About us

Nothing between you and the engineers

Zonova Tech is a founder-led product engineering studio in Nuwara Eliya, Sri Lanka. The people you brief are the people who design, build and ship your software — accountable end to end, from the first architecture decision to the code running in production.

  • Nuwara Eliya, LK
  • 8 people
  • One room
  • Founder-led

The layers, removed Most studios put three people between you and the code. We put none.
Why boutique

Lean is the point, not a limitation

Fewer hands means fewer projects at a time, and far more attention on each one. That is exactly the trade we want to make: the person who understood your problem is the person who writes the code, and they are still here after launch.

We're a young studio and we say so. What we won't do is invent clients, pad a logo wall or quote metrics we haven't earned. What we have is real: a production platform we built end to end, and a team that stays.

Come and see where it gets made

  • The studio's attic room: the wooden sign on a white wall, stools, a red beanbag and a triangular skylight.
    02·Under the eaves The whole studio. Beanbag included, boardroom not.
  • A laptop and external monitor showing Flutter code beside an Android device emulator.
    03·Mobile bench One codebase, both stores.
  • A branded Zonova mug on a studio windowsill beside a laptop showing Dart and Flutter source code, with the misty terraced hills of Nuwara Eliya through the glass.

  • A laptop lid on a wooden desk with a Zonova Tech sticker on it.
    05·Hardware Standard issue.
  • A hand holding a Zonova-branded mug in front of a screen full of Node.js server code.
    06·Backend desk Fuel, and the service it is keeping alive.
  • A laptop and monitor on a wooden desk lit by fairy lights, with a mug and a plant beside them.
    07·Evening shift The fairy lights were a design decision.

How we work

Principles we don't bend

01

Senior-only, no layers

You work directly with the people writing the code. No account managers, no junior hand-offs, no telephone game.

You share a channel with the engineers, not a manager
02

We build products, not rent seats

This is not staff augmentation. We take an idea and own it end to end, from architecture to the app store.

zonova.lk: scoped, designed, built and shipped by us
03

We ship, then we stay

We don't disappear at launch. We maintain, measure and keep improving what we build.

Every build ships with a support window, then a monthly plan
