Can you describe your career journey since joining?

Since joining Steatite, my career has developed steadily and in ways that have allowed me to build both my technical skills and practical experience. I initially joined the production team, where I gained a solid foundation in the systems and equipment we work with. Over time, I progressed into project work, which gave me the opportunity to take on more responsibility and get involved in building communication products such as the CRiB and the MMCU.

To support this work, I completed an MAC course, which strengthened my understanding and helped me contribute more effectively to the builds. Shortly after, a fantastic opportunity came up to join the communications field team. This move allowed me to apply my hands-on technical skills in a new environment, broaden my experience even further, and take on more field-focused responsibilities. Overall, my journey at Steatite has been one of continuous learning, growth, and progression.
