      I haven’t made a physical thing for a big company, but I’ve done various bits of analysis for small, medium and huge companies – mostly medical devices makers. A long time ago I worked in some projects that involved major aircraft engine companies.

      Hi,

      I have only ever worked for huge companies. First I worked for Phillips66 who refine oil into diesel and petrol. So you could say I made diesel and petrol for them.
      Then I went to Cadbury’s and made chocolate for them.
      Finally, I am here in MSD in Cork making life saving medicine.

      So technically I am making things for big companies!

      Last year I worked on a project for one of the biggest communications companies in the world, Huawei. They make lots of different products for the telecoms industry and are one of the largest manufacturers of mobile phones in the world!
