Mechanical engineering graduate. Day to day responsibilities include completing work related to the hardware part of the project.
Variety of tasks always keeps it exciting.

Cons
There isn't enough technical engineering work. Majority of the work is admin, configuration management work and integration work.
The large variations in my workload... Sometimes I am very quiet, and other times I have heaps to do.
Salary is not competitive, and salary negotiations are fairly difficult to succeed with.
The large variations in my workload. Sometimes I am very quiet, with not much work to do, and other times I have heaps to do. I'd prefer if it was more consistent, but I understand it's the nature of the industry.
Promotion opportunities are quite rigid... you must meet certain requirements to move up, and it can be difficult to obtain the necessary experience.
