Currently starting off my career as a Developer at CTG Melbourne! Could not be happier!I used my time in college to enjoy learning and putting myself into positions where I feel I lack a skill in order to improve.I pride that while I enjoy a level of organization and direction when working on a project from those above me, over the course of the past few years I have constantly put myself in situations where I must think and choose the right paths for myself and present them to my superiors and show a level of autonomy. I have the discipline to follow through and research the mechanics behind a solution I implement such that I can recognize the internal mechanics and recognize an issue beyond my control. For example, many CAD programs are focusing on dynamic mesh refinement, though many times the algorithms for which must be made bespoke for the application. For this reason I did not feel comfortable using them unless I understood how to create and use them myself; Therefore I began doing research under PHD students in numerical methods. Now for my job I have been able to recognize when the software itself has an issue by the outcome that I receive, especially in circumstances where a primitive algorithm may have failed to converge properly but presents itself as if it has. This 'Engineers Intuition' I feel is invaluable, and does not require a complete understanding of the subject. In this same vein, I have found issues that could be improved, presented them to my superiors, delved into content for several weeks, journaling and logging my findings in detail, and then prototyped solutions to these engineering problems using programming knowledge. This is what I then show to my superiors along with the updates of what I have learned if they so desire to prove I have found and can create a solution, but more importantly , that i can back it up with basic documentation. It is my understanding that workflows although different depending on industry, need this kinds of adaptation from higher level engineers in order to interconnect many employees without causing discord within a single project due to the differing plans of attacks of each individual tasked on a single part, and is something I am very anxious to continue to educate my self on with new work opportunities with larger groups.
