Prepare for take-off as we bring you this special episode direct from Boeing Defence Australia’s headquarters in Brisbane Australia where we spoke to Amy List, the Director for Sustainment Operations for Boeing!!

ㅤ

Amy took a move in the ‘flight’ direction once graduating with a Bachelor of Aeronautical Engineering and later a Masters Degree in Project Management, allowing her to hold multiple engineering and management positions across some of the world's leading aerospace engineering companies including Raytheon, Boeing and even the Royal Australian Air Force!! There she's had the privileged opportunity to work on big-name aircraft such as PC-9's, P3 Orions, F18 Super Hornets, C17 Globemasters, Wedgetails, and recently but more notably Australia's very own, the Loyal Wingman Project.

ㅤ

Throughout this episode, we covered some fresh and ‘buzzing’ engineering topics all the way from space operations, to flight maintenance, and even covering Boeing's path to renewable aircraft fuel operations by 2030.

Reaching these heights of success however wouldn't be possible without touching on the times when she's experienced turbulence along the way in her career and how she mitigated these issues whilst balancing not only a successful career, but personal life.

We also touch and go on a few hints and tips on ‘landing’ a job in the aeronautical industry and how Women In Stem in particular can succeed in entering the workforce. This episode is perfect for anybody at any stage in their career, or anyone who simply wants to know more about life in this buzzing industry.

So strap yourselves in, relax and learn about what it takes to work in one of the most adaptive and ever-transforming industries in the world, where things aren’t always ‘plane’ and simple.
