  Ultimate Partner

  Nov 2019 - now

  My move to sales and business development involves helping companies transition into the digital age, optimizing processes, implementing cutting-edge technologies, and driving innovation to enhance efficiency and competitiveness in the industry. My role is to support customers using Solid Edge software. The work is almost entirely virtual, so it was essential to know my way around computers and upskill my knowledge of IT Systems.Part of the role also includes presenting Solid Edge training courses on various of the Solid Edge portfolio features and product add-ons.I am gaining experience in both Solid Edge simulation and FEMAP to become a simulation expert. I worked at Ultimate Partner for two months as a student while I was completing my studies, and in 2020, I started my internship.
