Always, always drive. If you have a passion and you're going for that passion, there's going to be hurdles. There will be times along that path that you ask yourself, am I doing the right thing? Should I be doing this? Should I change that? And that's, I think, a natural thought process whenever you come across a hurdle or a challenge in a career path or an educational path. ●       I think without passion, it's hard to maintain resolve or kind of keep on that path regardless of what it is, whether you're autodidact teaching yourself or whether you're going to university or technical school, if you don't have passion for it, it's very difficult.●       The traditional education system is broken when it comes to hands-on technical skills. We need more focus on trades and technical education.●       I think people fear automation because they think it will replace humans. But my argument to that is I think just like our cell phones and our earbuds and our hearing aids and pacemakers, we're augmenting the human. We're allowing them to do more with less.●       . AI can play a really in-depth role in that because we can do some predictive analysis and say things like The new iPhone just came out. So let's slot all of the new iPhone products closer to the pick faces than the old ones. That type of dynamic&Support the show

You have to understand the business side and the financials.●       Understanding all the non-technical sides of running a company or a business is vitally important.  Every industrial company out there has to understand how to run a business to be successful, or you'll go out of business. You must understand that you must take in more revenue than expense to be profitable.●       You need resilience, that's for sure. You need conviction, resilience, to be committed, and you have to be in it for the long haul.●       We need to identify what's the pain point, what's the need that needs to be solved, and then come up with that. Or find that technology or that innovation to solve that problem.●       Many people will say no upfront or just kind of give you lip service or whatever, but you have to be persistent. You have to be resilient, find and identify those people who think like you, and get them to start speaking the same language to help you advocate. And you just have to keep at it over and over.●       When you're responsible for people, the game changes significantly because everything you say and do in your actions is magnified that much more and means so much more because those people are counting on you for leadership, work guidance, and being there for them. But also you need to learn how to manage through some very difficult personal situations.●       If you have a team of people who think you will fail, your organization's going to fail.

As we think about developing any product, in addition to that risk management piece, we think about what we call human factors. ●       Regulated industries have defined development processes. Within the f d a in terms of medical devices, the regulated process is called design controls, and that's at a high level how you control the development of that design throughout the development journey. The first step in that process is understanding the user's needs.●       I give back by serving his cub master for the youngest. And so I give back in that regard because the Cub Scouts teach them life lessons and leadership skills in a different way than what they get through sports and school. So being outdoors, enjoying nature, safety learning, just outdoor stuff, is fun and balances them out.●       Suppose you ever had the opportunity to present at conferences and things of this nature. In that case, it broadens your horizons and perspectives in terms of what opportunities are out there. For those on the fence, I'd say take a look at it. It is fascinating engineering, challenges, and very rewarding, you know, opportunities out there. ResourcesLet's connect with Brian on:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brian-wayman Support the show

Some can launch larger spacecraft, and others can launch smaller spacecraft. And, to launch a lot of larger spacecraft costs more money.●       The feeds are also on the satellite, so you'll have a receiving network in which you send signals from the earth to your spacecraft. Those signals will hit your reflectors and then bounce into the feeds, and you'll be able to receive those signals. And then, on the output side, it's just a reverse process. Signals got through amplification, then to your feeds, and the feeds send signals to your transmit reflectors or the earth, sometimes the same reflector as your receiver, and then it transmits those signals down to the earth. ●       The vibration test simulates your launch because when you're launching, your spacecraft's vibrating, so you want to ensure that nothing comes loose or a jar when it's going through this vibration test.●       I advice you to pursue what you enjoy. I wouldn't pursue something just for the aspect of, like, just trying to get paid and like get a lot of money just because, at this point, I feel like there's money in, in all industries, if you're willing to put the time in.ResourcesConnect with Ameer-          LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ameeralgharib/-          Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ameer_metime/Connect with Mamadou-          LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mamadou-diallo/-          Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pathpaver_diallo/Join Our Newsletter: bit.ly/ecpi-newsletter   Support the show

On this episode of the Engineers Hub Podcast, we had the great pleasure of bringing on and speaking with Anande Bergman, Chief Growth Officer at VIKTOR.Anande's engineering career began like many of us. He wanted to become an engineer and pursued a Bacherlor's Degree in Mechanical Engineering. From there on, he was interested in working with composite materials, and as a result, pursued a master's degree in Aerospace Engineering that focused on material structures and structural design. While pursuing his master's degree, Anande also used programming and code to improve his research. After his studies, Anande went to work in the Offshore Engineering Design & Service Industry. He was shocked by all the inefficiencies and outdated tools that engineering firms were still using in the private sector, and working with other colleagues, he started to slowly implement automation to eliminate some of these tasks. This eventually led to more automation experience in his career and the launch of VIKTOR, where he currently works as the chief Growth Officer. This is a jam-packed episode in which we talk more about VIKTOR and some of its real word applications and case studies, discuss the world of Engineering Design Automation and Digital Twins, list the programming languages that engineers should be studying, and share steps that you can take right now to help reduce inefficiencies in your office. Tune in and Enjoy! Resources:-          Connect with Anande Bergman-          Build your automated App on VIKTORSupport the show
