I work in IT infrastructure. Much of my day-to-day work focuses on compliance and audit preparation (patching, vulnerability prevention and mitigation), as well as upgrading and replacing systems and hardware.
Very satisfied with work, broad range of responsibilities with enough room to find my own interesting projects to work on.
Day-to-day I support frontline engineering in critical tasks to ensure we can maintain operation. This involves start to finish of making changes on sight, documenting them for traceability and ensuring value opportunities are targeted. As a process (chemical) engineer in a multidisciplinary role this requires high level of collaboration with SMEs and frontline team to ensure the integrity of non-process decisions and clearly convey the outcome of process checks/calcs.
Work on real problems and add value to the company, not treated like a grad
