Recently I had the privilege to visit ABB as apart of my Migrant Leaders program . I spent time learning about the automation process and the day to day tasks of these engineers . It was incredibly eye opening experience. I learnt about the automation process aswell as the more senior roles of project management . This was a great insight into engineering for me . Thank you to Nicolas at ABB and Elham at Migrant Leaders
