Electrical & Information Engineering · University of Ruhuna
I’m Mohamed Aslam, a final-year engineering undergraduate focused on power systems, renewable generation, grid infrastructure, and the intelligent monitoring that makes electrical networks more resilient.
01 — FIELD EXPERIENCE
Central Engineering Services (Pvt) Ltd · CESL
Worked on the Magistrate Court Complex project in Colombo 12, moving between technical drawings and live installation across a 15-storey building.
Also completed an independent residential electrical design project, translating site learning into a complete design exercise.
02 — SELECTED PROJECTS
Completed an independent residential electrical design project after the CESL internship, applying practical lessons from LV distribution, MEP drawings, circuit planning, emergency systems, panels, and UPS connections.
Studied large-scale generation during academic visits to Yugadhanavi and Sobadhanavi combined-cycle power plants and the Kerawalapitiya waste-to-energy facility, with attention to efficient and sustainable energy conversion.
Built an ESP32 monitoring system using FreeRTOS, sensor fusion, and MQTT telemetry. The same edge-to-cloud pattern supports condition monitoring and data-driven supervision in modern energy systems.
Designed and deployed a SystemVerilog finite-state machine on FPGA hardware, including mapped I/O and a three-attempt lockout with physical alarm triggers—hands-on experience with deterministic control logic.
Built a dual-VPC AWS architecture with peering, secure routing, IAM policies, and CloudWatch traffic analysis—supporting skills for connected assets, remote monitoring, and scalable energy data platforms.
03 — ENGINEERING STACK
PRIMARY DIRECTION
LV distribution design, MEP coordination, emergency lighting, circuits, distribution panels, UPS connections, and practical exposure to large-scale combined-cycle and waste-to-energy generation.
ENERGY TRANSITION
Academic and field exposure across renewable energy systems, waste-to-energy generation, combined-cycle plants, power flow, and the technical challenges of moving electricity from source to load.
EDGE MONITORING & CONTROL
Project experience includes ESP32 firmware, MPU-6050 and MAX30102 sensor integration, FreeRTOS dual-task processing, MQTT telemetry, Firebase, AVR and PIC assembly, plus FPGA control logic with SystemVerilog and Xilinx Vivado.
DATA-DRIVEN RENEWABLES
Built an LSTM model for multivariate time-series classification using five sensors, 15 features per sample, and 40 Hz data. Additional work with scikit-learn, RetinaFace, ArcFace, Python multithreading, and responsible AI provides a foundation for renewable forecasting, condition monitoring, and grid-data analysis.
CONNECTED ENERGY INFRASTRUCTURE
Hands-on projects cover AWS VPC, EC2, S3, IAM, ECR, ECS, CloudWatch, Route 53, CloudFormation, load balancing, Auto Scaling, RDS, Docker, Kubernetes, and CI/CD. Built dual-VPC peering and Flow Log monitoring to understand secure connectivity and operational visibility.
04 — EDUCATION
POWER GENERATION EXPOSURE
Academic field visits to the Yugadhanavi and Sobadhanavi combined-cycle power plants and the Kerawalapitiya waste-to-energy facility provided direct insight into large-scale, efficient, and sustainable generation.
