In BD we have embraced the use of digital technology to collaborate effectively with our teams around the world. Additionally, we also value team member growth through providing opportunities to make an impact beyond the home location when needs arise. In such instances, our objective is to distribute these opportunities between all team members, seeking their acceptance to travel whilst lending their expertise to meet the needs of the business through the projects they support. And, while it’s difficult to predict and quantify the amount for any individual in advance, regionally aligned associates could incur periodic travel up to half of their working time subject to any entry requirements governed by the countries being visited. Note: In all cases, we will strive to minimize travel as much as possible and any amount of travel is not intended to be an ongoing weekly requirement

Education:                                                                                                             

Bachelor's Degree: in Engineering field, preferred in Electrical, Mechanical, Controls, Automation or Project Management.
