Development engineer

What does a typical working day look like?
As one of the first people in the office, I start by raising the blinds on the windows and switching on the lights. I then check my emails and see what tasks I have to do that day. I take part in meetings as and when I am required, work on programming or carry out measurements and tests on our devices. During the breaks, I enjoy chatting with my colleagues or having lunch together.

If you had to express yourself in an emoji, which one would you choose for your current job?
