Reviews
As a graduate only few tasks we have to do solely, generally there are routine task to do and few individual task set out for me to complete. I am exposed to different area of work as well.
In my role as a GTF Engineer, I am doing & reviewing redline markups, reviews various electrical calculations. Provide technical guidance in various projects including technical queries.
I support the study team of a major project. I help with engineering design reviews, value optimization identification, risk management, and stakeholder management.
