Understand the behaviour.
I’m interested in why a system works the way it does, from the signal on a pin to the workflow that exposes it to someone using the product.
ABOUT / SAM UDAYANGA
I like understanding
what happens
behind the interface.
I’m an electronics and embedded engineer based in Melbourne, with a career spanning connected products, wireless care systems, power electronics and embedded Linux.

THE ENGINEER BEHIND THE WORK
Close to the hardware.
Interested in the whole product.
I started my professional electronics career in 2016. At Kasper Global, I progressed from Electronics Engineer to Senior Electronics Engineer and then Chief Electronics Engineer. The work took me across PCB design, embedded firmware, sensing, mechanical integration and manufacturing support.
Leadership didn’t take me away from building. I continued working hands-on with firmware, hardware prototypes and debugging while helping coordinate the engineering work around them.
My Australian experience has broadened that perspective: wireless nurse-call and care electronics at Horizon, battery and inverter integration at Clenergy, and embedded controller development at Accesstel.
Today, I work with embedded Linux and connected power equipment, bringing together device communication, useful controls and the practical task of making changes behave correctly on the target hardware.
Explore my experienceWHAT SHAPES MY WORK
Stay with the problem.
I follow work through prototypes, implementation, validation and the questions that come from manufacturing and integration.
Bring the disciplines together.
My work connects electronics, firmware, mechanical design and software teams. A shared understanding helps decisions survive beyond a single discipline.
Look for something measurable.
Bench measurements, target checks and device feedback help turn an assumption into an engineering decision.
EDUCATION
A foundation in
electronics & communication.
B.Eng (Hons)
Electronic & Telecommunication Engineering
Sheffield Hallam University, via SLIIT · 2014
UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH
Autonomous quadcopter with stereo vision.
PROFESSIONAL ASSESSMENT
Positive engineering skills assessment from Engineers Australia.
BEYOND THE DAY JOB
Still asking
“what if?”
CodeStitch
A developing idea for bringing visibility across code, services and CAN data into one engineering workspace. The direction includes live dashboards and AI-assisted checks; it remains a personal exploration.
Better tools for building.
I’m exploring Python automation and agent-assisted development workflows, including clearer handovers between implementation, testing and build review.

RECOMMENDATIONS
From the people
I’ve worked with.
Selected excerpts from LinkedIn recommendations by colleagues, managers, mentors and teammates. Roles and relationships reflect the supplied recommendations.
His deep expertise in electronic systems, automation technologies, and system integration played a crucial role in the project’s success.
I recommend Sameera as a passionate and trustworthy employee to work with.
His support and collaborative spirit make him an amazing mentor and a true asset to any team.
More recommendations
His comprehensive understanding of multi-layered and high-speed data PCB designs is noteworthy.
His ability to visualize and transform concepts into tangible models greatly aided in the development and prototyping phases of our project.
His management style is based on open communication, encouragement, and teamwork.
I personally recommend him as a professional engineer who has experience with many areas.
Sameera is a very kind and helping person who would take time out of his work to help a colleagues when needed.
In his final year autonomous drone project, he had integrated his knowledge in embedded systems, electronics and PCBs to deliver a productive outcome towards SLIIT research profile.
He always led by example, and I was lucky enough to work under him for almost four years.
