RE: My Experience Working as an Electrical Engineer
Nice! My brother worked in power distribution until he got bored and went back for his masters. Now he works on self driving cars. Electrical engineers have an excellent skill set for a variety of jobs.
We do, I just hope that after going and finishing my degree that I never work in this field. I am so much more comfortable with electronics and software. I wish your brother the best with working on self driving cars, if all goes well then he could land a few patents under his name which could make him a ton of money, and more importantly it seems like it would be a lot of fun to be involved with.
Patent or not he is having no trouble finding good high paying jobs. Sounds like you two have had similar situations. Have you found that all the technology surrounding power distribution is incredibly outdated? Where are you doing your work?
The tech we used was extremely outdated however its reliable and we know it works. I am working in Alberta (oilsands area of Canada).
