He is the nephew of former world number 1 men's doubles player, Alvent Yulianto.
Sukamuljo started to learn about badminton at two and a half years, by seeing his father play on the court behind their house.
Noticing young Sukamuljo's interest in badminton, his father then found a coach in Jember at the Putra 46 club to foster his child's talent for a year.
Sukamuljo later entered the Sari Agung club in Banyuwangi and in 2006, at the age of eleven, he won a Graha Bhakti Cup tournament.
Recognizing his talent, Sukamuljo's parents encouraged him to join a bigger club.

With these additional hours, he finally managed to pass the audition at PB Djarum in 2007.
After joining PB Djarum, Sukamuljo went through defeat after defeat.
At first, Sukamuljo played in the men's singles discipline.
However, he was then turned toward the doubles disciplines, experimenting with both the men's and mixed doubles.

He won the men's doubles titles at the All England Open in 2017 and 2018; World Superseries Finals in 2017; and at the Asian Games in 2018.
Together with his current partner, Marcus Fernaldi Gideon, they were awarded the BWF Best Male Players of the Year for two years in a row after collecting seven Superseries titles in 2017 and eight World Tour titles in 2018.
