"Manufacturing has always
intrigued me since I was young;
it's what drove me to earn my degree
in mechanical engineering. Working at
Brazonics has allowed me to be very hands
on and learn a great deal. The process of
transforming a block of aluminum into a heat
exchanger for an aircraft is an interesting
journey, with many steps and challenges.
I have used my education to help tackle
complex problems and everyone here is very supportive in allowing
new creative ideas to be explored to manufacture a better product. I
started here as an Intern and have since worked as Process Engineer,
Dip Braze Supervisor, Continuous Improvement Engineer and now Lead
Continuous Improvement Engineer. I would like to go back to school and
earn a master's degree related to engineering management or possibly
an MBA. From there I could see myself becoming Engineering Manager
or General Manager. The best aspect of working at Brazonics is the
people – a main reason why I am excited to come to work every day.
From the second you walk in the door to the moment you leave, there
is always someone there asking how things are going or joking around
to make the day more enjoyable. Many coworkers hang out outside of
work and organize activities such as hiking, playing paintball, fishing
or catching a Red Sox game. We are also two miles from the ocean and
there are a lot of things to do on the NH seacoast after work."
