Macquarie University Careers Directory Profiles

Personally, I have found it great to experience a wide variety of engineering disciplines throughout my rotations. It has given me an understanding of what different people are really working on within Saab, rather than being siloed off in my own little corner.

Don’t limit yourself to working with the same people. As an engineer, it’s important to be able to work with a range of people, and you will not always be on the same project with the same people. This is also the best way to gain a range of different experiences and knowledge. 

I enjoy understanding how software systems work, how they’re connected and wired up, and how I could use that knowledge to implement what I need to do.

One of the things I enjoy most about my job is working with my team and the chance to work with people who have a range of experiences and different engineering specialisations.

Flexibility and culture. Thoughtworks’ environment gives me the freedom and opportunity to really learn and develop - there’s no hierarchical structure.

It feels special being a part of the projects that impact the future and everyday lives of Queenslanders for the better. It’s also exciting to be around for the early stages of development and to have opportunities to express your creativity and contribute with ideas to these projects.  

One of the projects that I am currently working on involves providing Human Factors input to the upgrading of an online platform.
