Virtusa Expands Sri Lanka Hub with 200 New AI and Tech Roles

Date:

Virtusa Corporation has announced a major expansion of its Sri Lanka Delivery Centre, creating over 200 new career opportunities across high-growth technology sectors such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), Data Science, Full Stack Development, DevOps, and BPO/KPO services. The move marks a renewed phase of investment in Sri Lanka as Virtusa advances toward its goal of becoming a $5 billion enterprise by 2030.

The announcement aligns with the strategic vision of Virtusa CEO Nitesh Banga, who has committed to positioning the company as the world’s leading domain-driven engineering partner for the AI-driven enterprise. During his recent visit to Sri Lanka, Banga underscored the country’s pivotal role in Virtusa’s global operations, noting that Colombo remains the firm’s founding centre of excellence and a key contributor to its global delivery model.

The newly announced positions, open to both fresh graduates and experienced professionals, will enable Sri Lankan talent to work on cutting-edge AI and digital transformation projects for Fortune 500 clients across industries such as banking, financial services, insurance, telecom, healthcare, and technology.

Virtusa’s Sri Lankan operations have long been central to its success, combining deep domain expertise with agile engineering and a culture of continuous innovation. The Colombo centre also leads advancements in Virtusa Helio, the company’s proprietary suite of AI-powered accelerators that help enterprises achieve faster and measurable business outcomes through intelligent automation.

“Sri Lanka continues to be a strategic centre of excellence for Virtusa,” said Virtusa Corporation Chief Operating Officer Venkatesan Vijayaraghavan. “Our recruitment drive reflects confidence in the country’s exceptional talent and its ability to deliver world-class AI and engineering solutions to global clients.”

Reinforcing its focus on AI-led innovation, Virtusa continues to upskill its workforce through the Virtusa Thrive Academy, offering specialized programs in AI orchestration, prompt engineering, and domain-specific AI applications. These initiatives aim to prepare employees for the next wave of technological disruption while contributing to Sri Lanka’s growing digital economy.

Virtusa Joint Country Head (Sri Lanka) Denver De Zylva added, “As we move toward our $5 billion goal by 2030, our commitment remains to nurture world-class Sri Lankan talent ready to lead in an AI-first world.”

Candidates can explore and apply for open roles through Virtusa’s careers portal, as the company continues to position Sri Lanka as a global innovation hub within its international delivery network.
