Listen Show in Spotify, Apple Podcast or Anchor.FM

Description

A Group Project Engineer is someone who is in charge of giving service to other engineering branches as well as other crucial departments such as logistics, marketing, distribution, production, packings, research and development as well as reporting directly to the Managers and Directors. This is Jose Luis Farias main task. 

He has been working mostly in Consulting Engineering, Environmental Engineering Food & Industry Engineering. His job titles are either Design Engineer, Process Engineer or currently, Project Engineer.

It was a pleasure to chat with him, as we tried an episode attempt back in 2015. This time, we have both more experience on our paths, so it was great to compare both episodes!

He is currently working at Puratos in Brussels, Belgium. 

I hope you enjoy it as I did!
