Essential Responsibilities:

You will be working with different teams on various engineering studies, designs, simulation or tests according to your rotational stages.  You will also be given laboratory activities or even commissioning experiences on our global project sites. 

As a program participant, you will work together with other fellow graduate engineers to design, execute and present the results of a group project to the executive managers of the business, where you develop knowledge and strengthen capabilities in project and stakeholder management.

Qualifications/Requirements:

• We are looking for fresh graduates in related engineering fields, such as power electrical, electronic, controls or mechanical engineering, or equivalent knowledge or experience.
