Kushan Bandara brings curiosity, and a love for complexity to his work. He also strikes a balance between his career and family life, thanks to Edison's flexible working culture.
As a kid, I was always curious. I was fascinated by how things worked, and my curiosity turned into a passion for engineering. In the electrical energy sector, even something as simple as a power line holds incredible complexity, and I love being part of that.
Electrical engineers have a huge but often invisible impact. You don’t really notice us...until the power goes out. That quiet responsibility motivates me.
With three kids and both my partner and I working full time, flexibility is everything. Edison gets that. The culture here is inclusive and collaborative. It really does feel like family. I also get to work on a wide range of projects - something you don't always get to experience in larger firms.
I’ve always appreciated that growth here isn’t one size fits all. Whether I want to go deep technically or explore leadership, there’s room to shape my career path. Not only that, I have the backing to do it.
I like how Edison instils the values of open communication, positivity, and a growth mindset. They aren't buzzwords, but a guide for how we work and grow together.
Always do your best. The most exciting things often lie on the other side of change, so stay open to new opportunities.
