Gaining hands-on experience building, setting up, and testing electrical systems and hardware
Investigating and solving problems in hardware and system configurations using structured analysis techniques
Using simulation software to design and test electrical circuits
Keeping clear records of your work, including technical notes and results from experiments and tests
What We’re Looking For
Currently studying towards a degree in electronic or electrical engineering, ICT, industrial communications, control engineering, or another related field
Confident communicating ideas clearly and collaborating with others
Excited to explore new technologies and expand your knowledge
Proactive in working to deadlines and adapting to changing priorities
Committed to working responsibly and promoting a zero-harm culture
Comfortable using basic tools and test equipment like multimeters and oscilloscopes
