Development Technician (Gap Year Employment)
Simoco Europe Ltd
Cambridge, United Kingdom
Employed as a development technician, half the job was concerned with the operation and maintenance of a number of TCP/IP networks used in part of the development of the software for the radio systems. The other half of this time was spent configuring and trouble-shooting radio systems, both in the lab and in the field for specific customers or projects. These jobs required a sound grasp of practical problem solving techniques and ability to successfully assimilate the knowledge gained while solving a particular problem and to apply this to future situations.
