Jul 2018 - Sep 2021
During my tenure as a field service engineer at Chess Dynamics, my primary responsibilities involved providing field support and training to customers, as well as assisting in sales activities for tenders and demonstrations. As the senior field service engineer, I played a crucial role in multimillion-pound projects worldwide, collaborating closely with key stakeholders. In recognition of my achievements, I received silver and gold awards from my employer during my employment. The equipment I specialized in included mechanical and electromechanical systems, particularly electro-optical surveillance systems. These systems were installed on various platforms, including vehicles, military bases, and airports. The system comprised components such as an RF detector/jammer, passive radar, thermal cameras, and day cameras. I actively participated in the design and retrofitting of this capability onto numerous armored vehicles. Over time, my focus predominantly shifted towards land systems due to my extensive experience on different projects and my service in the armed forces. Another significant aspect of my role was designing and delivering training programs for end users, covering operating procedures and maintenance procedures ranging from level 1 to level 4. I ensured that users were proficient in handling and maintaining the complex equipment effectively. Designed and delivered training of complex equipment to end users, this would cover operating procedures and level 1-4 maintenance procedures. Show less
