Level 3 Mechatronics Engineer

Just finishing apprenticeship, from January job title is Mechatronics Maintenance Engineer.

For context, I attended a 6th form in Redditch where I studied Physics, Mathematics and Computer Science. I found AWE mostly by accident, as while I was searching specifically for mechatronic apprenticeships, I was far outside the capture range that AWE usually recruits apprentices.

I studied Maths, Physics and Computer Science at 6th form which gave me the theoretical knowledge, but it was this apprenticeship that raised my practical knowledge up to the same level. Without it I wouldn’t have the confidence and quality in my work to meet the standards of AWE and start my career in the professional engineering world.

After completing my apprenticeship in Mechatronics, I am specialising in electronics where the company is paying for me to go and complete my degree achieving the same standard as a level 6 apprenticeship.
