Staff stories
This year, as we celebrate International Women’s Day under the theme of 'Count her in: Invest in Women. Accelerate progress.', it's imperative to address the barriers faced by women in engineering and actively encourage and support women to pursue careers in STEM fields. As a start, we asked some of our women at Mipac what career advice they would give to their younger selves. Here’s what they said.
Jake Minehan always loved gadgets and building things, so it was no surprise that he decided to study mechatronics engineering at university. Now a graduate engineer at Mipac, working with one of the company’s biggest clients, he says on-the-job learning has been vastly different to sitting in a classroom. We sat down with him to find out why and to learn more about what’s it like to be a graduate engineer at Mipac. We sat down with both of them to discover how they ended up here, ask them about Mipac’s company culture and get their thoughts on the future of control systems engineering as a profession.
Senior Control Systems Engineer Mohamed (Mo) Sakr and Lead Control Systems Engineer Yasser Elshohna first met at college in Egypt. A decade and a half later, following diverse career paths which took them across the petrochemicals, oil and gas, mining and construction, water treatment and thermal power industries across two countries, they are colleagues again at Mipac. We sat down with both of them to discover how they ended up here, ask them about Mipac’s company culture and get their thoughts on the future of control systems engineering as a profession.
Current opportunities
It’s an exciting time in our company’s trajectory. If you are someone who likes to be involved in the lifecycle of a project and have the opportunity to think outside of the realms of your remit, then we would love to hear from you.
