It’s personal

We're extremely passionate about the details. For some, it's a sound. For others, a surface, a space, a weld. Not everyone gets it. 

For Burak Özkök, Senior Innovation Specialist, it’s the geometry. One hexagon after another, perfectly placed like a honeycomb.

Not everyone gets it.
It's personal. 

For Jimmy Handroos, Team Manager, it’s how everything fits together. Spindle alignment, ball geometry, the tolerance. At 10,000 RPM, every micron matters.

Not everyone gets it.
It's personal. 

For Hemlata Joglekar, Sales Manager, it’s the grace of counter-rotating lobes that never touch. The missing roar. The smooth rotation that tells you everything is right. 

Not everyone gets it.
It's personal.

Give it a try. You’ll never know where engineering can take you unless you do.

That was the encouragement I received from Dr. Chin, my final-year lecturer.  At the time, I wasn’t sure I belonged in engineering. It wasn’t my first choice. I’d stumbled into it, and many of my classmates were planning to move into other fields after graduation. From our seats at university, engineering felt narrow.

But then Dr. Chin walked in. She wasn’t just teaching equations; she also shared her story: completing her degree, working in the industry, returning for a PhD. Hearing how her career had taken so many turns planted a seed in me: if she could shape such a varied path, maybe I could too.

Her words convinced me to give engineering a real chance – to stay with the craft, keep learning, and let curiosity guide me. And she was right. Just a few years into my career, it’s already taken me from Malaysia to Denmark, working on international projects I once only dreamed of. Dr. Chin showed me that engineering is a gateway to a journey that keeps unfolding.

One of the best things you can have is curiosity.

Engineering school taught me to solve everything alone. Hit a wall? Problem-solve until you break through, even if it takes hours. 

But sitting across from Ross Glendinning after completing my nine-month Career Pathways Program, feeling completely lost about my next move, he cut through my overthinking with one simple truth: curiosity will take you further than anything else. 

I was so busy trying to prove I knew everything that I’d forgotten the power of admitting I didn’t. So I changed my approach. Instead of wrestling with problems solo, I started asking colleagues about things I didn’t understand. 

The engineering mindset says figure it out yourself. The curious mindset says don’t be afraid to ask someone who already knows. Guess which one keeps you ahead?

Sales Engineer

Proud, passionate and slightly obsessed

Join us behind the scenes at Alfa Laval and experience our passion for people - and machines.

Material Specialist Emina Kujundzic has really bonded with the heat exchanger over her years at Alfa Laval. Nowadays she sees it somewhat as a reformed bad boy.

To Revos Innovation Centre Manager Justyna Szczepańska, membranes are little alchemists – turning beer into gold. Well, concentrated beer. But golden all the same: pure osmosis magic.

Marine Engineer Nils B. Pedersen is on fire. He helped design the clever little burner that quietly keeps the whole engine room running. Sometimes all it takes is a spark.
