My Path to Operations Management
I started at ACE in early 2018, coming from a DCS background in the power industry. One of the things that was most apparent to me when I joined ACE was the value we placed on operations and technical expertise. At ACE, engineers are recognized as the driving force of our business and success. I loved working on controls projects, learning new programs, and being in the field. I had no interest in project management or sales, and ACE made it clear that a career path focused on projects, field work, and technical leadership was valued. The people who make projects successful, teach others best practices, over-deliver on project solutions, and solve problems are integral to the organization regardless of titles or positions. I saw year-over-year how much value ACE puts into our technical leadership and into our customers. I knew I could be successful at ACE choosing whatever career path appealed to me.
