Shoal Group Pty Ltd’s Post

Join us in recognising a major milestone for Matthew Vella - a decade with Shoal Group Pty Ltd! “From the beginning, Matthew has brought not just technical expertise but also a strong sense of teamwork and leadership. His ability to thrive in complexity, invest in relationships, and bring enthusiasm to each project has made him a true asset to Shoal,” says CEO, Shaun Wilson. Ten years ago, having gained a Bachelor of Engineering (Aeronautical Engineering), Matt sought an engineering role where he could work on system-wide aspects of engineering – and he found it at Shoal. "I knew Shoal worked in Defence and Space and this was exciting to me. I wanted to apply what I had learnt, and, at the same time, I was expecting to learn lots as we didn’t really cover systems engineering well at university. Separate from that, I’m highly motivated by Australian sovereignty and the Defence mission. The types of systems that the military employs are unlike anything else. Everything is bigger, faster, and just better!", he says. Even though Matt has primarily work in #Defence, his project experiences have been diverse, from space-based observation, cyber warfare, electronic warfare, to deployable infrastructure and training systems. As we celebrate his ten years with Shoal, we had a conversation about his career, challenges and outlook: https://lnkd.in/gAwYkfm3 #systemsengineering #systemsthinking #careers #earlycareers #graduateprogram #internship
