Azadeh
Name: Azadeh
Job Title: PCB Designer
Why did you choose a career in STEM?
I am really interested in STEM, as there is a link with what I know about technology and the kids’ world! As I have two kids too, I think it help me to be more in touch with their world and can help more.
What attracted you to CSA Catapult?
The opportunity to use my knowledge as an Electronic Engineer for new technologies, and being in touch with new industries. What is really interesting at CSA Catapult is being project-based. This means that there are always new things to learn and new career challenges.
What does an average day look like at work?
As a PCB designer, I am busy designing Electronics Boards with assigned software tools most days. Sometimes I’ll be found in the Lab, testing new boards as they arrive, or training myself for upcoming projects and the challenges they present.
When not in work, what do you like to get up to?
I mostly spend time with my family, my two kids, sometimes speaking to my sisters via video chatting. I love cooking, sketching and hanging out with friends – especially the ones that have kids near my children’s age so everyone can enjoy!
