The purpose of the Rotational Technician program was to give new employees the opportunity to obtain a wide array of skills and knowledge of company processes in an accelerated time frame. This was achieved by assigning the employee to rotate through four departments over a two-year period. During this time period I performed various functions for Manufacturing, Return & Repair, Test Engineering, and Titan 5500 Research & Development. After this program ended I was hired into Research & Development as a Senior Engineering Associate.
