In the last quarter of 2020, my journey as a mechanical laboratory technician during my mandatory national service at Takoradi Technical University ignited a passion for a career in heavy mobile machines. Teaching students the intricacies of basic automobile systems set the stage for what would become a defining pursuit. Amidst a lot of rejection emails during my national service, I clung to the hope that one day an interview would materialize. Two months into my role, a phone call summoned me for an aptitude test related to a Service apprentice position I had applied for weeks prior. Following success in the aptitude test, anticipation filled the air as I awaited an interview. Unfortunately, I was not successful after the interview. In late 2022, after dedicating two years to pursuing a position at the company, they posted two roles. I tailored distinct CVs for the service apprentice and service engineer trainee positions. Despite taking the service apprentice aptitude test and attending an interview, nothing proved futile for the second time. Subsequently, I received an invitation for an aptitude test related to the more competitive position, Service Engineer Trainee. After completing the test, the company extended an invitation for a third interview. Despite conflicting advice from friends, I proceeded undeterred, attending the interview unprepared in both attire and readiness. Fortunately, fate favored me, and I successfully navigated the interview. The pivotal moment arrived on January 9, 2023 – the day I was appointed as a service engineer trainee at Mantrac Ghana Limited . Reflecting on this year-long saga, the essence of persistence rings true. A decision made in the face of uncertainty now grants me the privilege of working on diverse Caterpillar machines across mines in different regions in Ghana. In sharing this tale, the lesson is clear, "The most essential factor is persistence – the determination never to allow your energy or enthusiasm to be dampened by the discouragement that must inevitably come". Remember that life tends to favor the determined. Wishing all a remarkable week ahead as you continue your journey.

People always ask about my background in Engineering… so here it is; 1. I worked for Princes LTD from the age of 17 for 6 years and this is where I completed my maintenance apprenticeship, HNC and HND in electrical and electronic engineering. I gained all my foundation knowledge of engineering here and it’s shaped me into the hard working person I am today. Whilst I was completing my apprenticeship I worked weekends in a coffee shop to pay for my car so I could get to my apprenticeship. This showed me dedication and motivation goes hand in hand and is needed to succeed. 2. I worked for Cultech LTD, this is where I completed my BSc in Electrical and Electronic Engineering. I also gained a lot of experience in process engineering and taking on individual projects. During my pregnancy here I did a lot of data analysis on why we were having breakdowns and this improved my continuous improvement skills massively. 3. Next was Purolite as a maintenance engineer working on tanks, valves and pipework. This job showed me in greater detail about flow meters and the technology behind data analysis and what information we could capture to ensure the lines were working efficiently. 4. I worked for KPMF. This is my favourite past employer but mostly down to the people I worked with. This company showed me the DC world and what it takes to be an engineer in a smaller company. It’s a lot of pressure and responsibility but it also comes with respect from your employees and trust from your employer to look after such equipment. It’s made me believe older machines are meant to be kept and maintained equipment lasts a hell of a lot longer and it can survive. This also taught me about local suppliers and who’s around to help with different equipment, especially older equipment as it needs specific people and reliable people. You make friends and get to know local teams and they’re you’re helping hand. You also take them with you to your next employer and recommend them to everyone. Like Rotamec Engineering Solutions. They’re so reliable and on point for motor repairs ❤️ I can’t recommend them enough for motor sourcing or repairs. 5. Konecranes - My current employer. This has shown me that my previous skills can be used in any industry and it’s an eye opener and a confidence boost to know I could work anywhere and with the right people and training I can learn a whole new engineering sector. To become a fully qualified crane technician and know as much as I do about cranes in 10 months is absolutely insane but without my past I wouldn’t have a clue. Cranes vary in age massively and I’m glad I’ve worked on both old and new (DC and AC) in my previous employment. There’s still a lot to learn in greater detail (radios, inverters, data analysis equipment) but I’m glad I have all my foundations covered to guide me in my everyday role as a field service technician.

The professional journey of a mechanical engineer is a transformative process that unfolds in different stages, each presenting unique challenges and opportunities for career growth. During the initial years of their profession (0-5 years), mechanical engineers focus on establishing a solid foundation by mastering core principles like statics, dynamics, and thermodynamics. Practical experience gained through internships and entry-level positions is crucial, as well as developing effective communication and teamwork skills essential for success in collaborative engineering projects. Challenges in this phase may include identifying a specialization within the field and adapting to the requirements of professional work environments. As engineers progress into the mid-career phase (5-15 years), their goal is to enhance their expertise and emerge as technical leaders. Specializing in areas such as robotics or control systems, honing problem-solving skills, and taking on leadership roles become key. Balancing technical proficiency with leadership qualities can be demanding, as meeting project deadlines and adhering to budget constraints require meticulous attention. In the later stages of their career (15+ years), mechanical engineers shift their focus to strategic thinking, promoting innovation, mentorship and speaking. Embracing a holistic approach that considers broader impacts beyond technical aspects, advocating for innovation, and sharing knowledge with younger engineers become central priorities. Keeping up with advancements in a rapidly evolving industry and adapting to new technologies present ongoing challenges for seasoned engineers. Throughout their professional journey, continuous learning, networking, and adaptability are essential elements to succeed in the field of mechanical engineering. Participating in workshops, building connections within the professional community, and demonstrating a willingness to acquire new skills all contribute to sustained success in the industry. Regardless of the specific career path chosen, a genuine passion for engineering, a strong commitment to lifelong learning, and a readiness to embrace change are crucial factors for achieving success in this dynamic profession. #LizweEngineers #TuesdayTechnical #LizweOnlineCourses #TuesdayTips

"Hello LinkedIn fam! 👋 I'm Just graduated in Mechanical Engineering and is looking for Trainee Engineer roles. If anyone spots open opportunities, kindly tag me. Let's connect and explore together! #NewGrad #MechanicalEngineer #TraineeEngineer"

Lots of people in and out of the industrial setting mostly get it wrong when you say you're a graduate engineer in a hands-on engineering role. Some upcoming engineers and students also think it's all about passing exam and getting to sit in the office to make decisions. Don't get me wrong, it's fine but tell me in a nation like ours where you suffer to even get 3 internships before graduation what experience and skill do you possess to take such a decision making role? The days of mechanics and electricians are gradually phasing out for engineers. A new era of service engineers are arising where skills in both and knowledge in computing is the main requisite to carry out your duties. I'm a Mechanical Engineer from university, my colleague here Abdul Samad Amudji is an Electrical Engineer from university... Guess what? We're both service engineers We face problems of different natures on the field, and execute them with customers thinking is he a "mechanic" or "electrician"? Or is he a guy just good with computers? No!!! WE ARE SERVICE ENGINEERS, WE GET OUR HANDS DIRTY AND OUR BRAINS HEATING, AND WE NEVER STOP LEARNING. A service engineer, usually deals with the maintenance, repair, and troubleshooting of various equipment or systems, including mechanical, electrical, or electronic components. They often work directly with customers to diagnose and fix issues with the equipment. Nonetheless we also do some assembly and rebuilds too. Young engineers, ask yourself are you an engineer by name or by the knowledge you possess? Don't just memorize and pass an exam just to get rewarded a piece of paper... Get debatable understanding. #caterpillar #engineering
