You will be part of a collaborative engineering environment where you can learn by doing. One day you might be developing or updating a mechanical drawing, the next participating in a design review, solving a technical problem with another engineering discipline or supporting teams bringing equipment to life on site.

You will progressively build your knowledge of engineering standards, design practices, safety, maintainability, manufacturing and project delivery, while being supported by experienced engineers.
