The best part of my job is the working ambiance and my colleagues. Being in an energetic, positive, and comfortable environment makes me motivated to do my job better and challenge everything easily. In Gram Equipment, I am truly happy with the attitudes of all, and being a member of this team is very joyful.
When I arrive at the factory, my first thing to do is to have breakfast and get a cup of tea, and then I check my agenda for an overview and list the things that I will do. After that, I check my e-mails, the latest quotations, and am ready to go through the job list one by one. At the end of the day, I review my list and rearrange my further jobs for tomorrow.
As a Planning Team Leader in the S&OP team, I am responsible for the planning of projects that are in the quotation phase and determining the lead times to receive them or not. If the quotation is accepted, my main job is to work on the planning in detail with every feature and resource assigned and release it to my colleagues and managers, ready for execution. In addition to that, examining the actual labor-hour status, comparing the budgets, and material costs for projects is another job to do.
In the S&OP team, I can investigate and work on projects, whether they are feasible or not. Doing this kind of case is one of the primary goals that I have always wanted to do as an engineer. Interacting with other departments, challenging with the obstacles coming from the outsources, and overcoming this stuff to execute the projects are the things that help me to be a better engineer in a smooth way.
I like to do Pilates, read science fiction books, and watch TV shows.
