Being system owner required me to have a detailed understanding of hydraulic actuation systems, complex hydrodynamic and hydrostatic effects, mid to low energy power systems ranging from 24Vdc to 440Vac, including how the nuclear reactor generates the power, Ethernet and fiber networking protocols and system safety processes. It required close interaction.

I learnt how to work well as a team, providing customer service, as well as organising stock and income. I have worked both in term time and out, in three different coops who allowed me to come back any time.
