Primarily a field service engineer role in heavy industry such as steel works, power stations, mining and petrochemical plants. I cover 24-hour callout on a rota system. I also work on projects typically involving AC, DC or Cycloconverter drives from low to medium voltage and up to tens of Mega Watts. I assist with most parts of the process from initial site surveys, FDS documents, software and hardware design, CAD production of schematics and general arrangement drawings, factory acceptance… Show more Primarily a field service engineer role in heavy industry such as steel works, power stations, mining and petrochemical plants.

I assist with most parts of the process from initial site surveys, FDS documents, software and hardware design, CAD production of schematics and general arrangement drawings, factory acceptance testing, procurement, installation and commissioning.Since December 2014 I have assumed an additional role as an electronics design and development engineer for SCADA remote switching and monitoring of national grid substations. As part of a small team I am responsible for developing the next generation of CPU and I/O cards and monitoring the existing product range for manufacturing problems and component obsolescence.

A return to a third party field service role, much like that at Downing and Mills but this time as senior engineer. My time was shared equally between workshop repairs and field service work. Responsible for bringing a project design role to the company in response to customer requests - producing digital and analogue products such as signal conditioners, sensor interfaces and production line performance monitoring products.Again I found myself working in a very diverse spread… Show more A return to a third party field service role, much like that at Downing and Mills but this time as senior engineer.

Responsible for bringing a project design role to the company in response to customer requests - producing digital and analogue products such as signal conditioners, sensor interfaces and production line performance monitoring products.Again I found myself working in a very diverse spread of industries from the Midlands to Scotland, primarily plastics (injection molding, blow molding and thermoforming), CNC machine tools, food production and high-speed special purpose machines.As senior engineer I mentored an apprentice who became a valuable member of the service team.

Responsible for the maintenance of all production machinery in the factory. Machines including plasma and laser cutters, CNC milling machines, lathes and welding equipment. Set up a small electronics workshop greatly reducing the maintenance costs by largely removing the need to replace drives, power supplies, controllers and other such units by repairing all on site.

I moved into industrial electronics to work on industrial displays due to my background in TV repair. I soon showed a flair for all aspects of electronics in industry. Both my professionalism in dealing with customers and ability to diagnose machine faults with little information and no diagrams took me to the position of principal field engineer within 2 years.

Both my professionalism in dealing with customers and ability to diagnose machine faults with little information and no diagrams took me to the position of principal field engineer within 2 years. Working for a third party repair company provided invaluable and very diverse experience in all types of industry covering the midlands and North of England often with multiple site visits in a single day. In the field I would diagnose faults and repair on site where possible. Where the fault was found to exits on a circuit board or in a unit such as a drive or controller that would be taken to the workshop where I would repair to component level, test and return to site to complete the repair.

Responsible for the rapid detection and rectification of electronic assembly faults. Involved in the installation of the final inspection area of the PCB production line. Successfully drove down failure rates by implementing new operating procedures on the production line.

Primarily operating in the workshop repairing TV's and video recorders, both those owned by customers and those rented to customers from Parry's large stock. Also included some work installing and repairing sound and lighting systems in pubs and clubs. I expanded my knowledge of electronics and my confidence in dealing with public and professional clients.
