My typical workday

Each morning begins with a metro ride to the office, where I start my day with a cup of tea or coffee to wake up my mind. I then dive into checking emails and organizing my schedule. Since my colleagues are in different time zones, the afternoon often involves �waking them up� to discuss project progress and implementation strategies - unless, of course, the sun rises in the west! A typical day for me includes designing and testing automation workflows, programming PLCs, diagnosing and resolving system issues, and coordinating with cross-functional teams to ensure project success. The mix of individual problem-solving and collaborative brainstorming keeps every day fresh and meaningful.

What I do?

As an Automation Engineer, my role is to design, program, and optimize automation systems for our ice cream equipment. I ensure that our machines run smoothly, efficiently, and reliably. Whether it�s troubleshooting issues, collaborating with colleagues in different time zones, or tailoring solutions to customer needs, my work keeps me engaged and motivated.

Why Gram Equipment?

Gram Equipment's global reputation for excellence and innovation immediately attracted me. I was particularly inspired by the opportunity to contribute to a product that brings happiness to people around the world: ice cream. Beyond the technical challenges, I value the collaborative and supportive environment here, where every team member's passion fuels progress.
