I'm currently assigned in Gabon, Central Africa as a Komatsu support. As a trainee, I acquired lots of knowledge, skills and experiences on various Komatsu machine.  The receiving company provided French class since Gabonese people often speak French than English. Being exposed to various activities and kaizen enhance my growth as a trainee and future Global Engineer.

Having been with Komatsu for almost 5 years, I've never regretted my choice. I appreciate the dynamic nature of the work—it's never repetitive and continually challenges me to enhance my skills. Additionally, I've had the opportunity to travel to places I never dreamed I'd visit and engage with diverse cultures. Komatsu has truly been a place where I've grown both personally and professionally.

“I am currently doing the first phase of the last stage of the training program in Guinea, Africa. Primarily focusing on the condition monitoring of our mining machines and providing technical assistance to local mechanics during assemblies or troubleshooting. The opportunity to work alongside people of different nationalities surely made a significant improvement in my interpersonal skills which will be an essential trait in becoming a Komatsu Global Engineer.”

Currently I'm assigned at Sabodala Mine, Senegal. I'm experiencing a lot of things here in Sabodala both work and outside of work. In terms of work, I was able to utilize my skills as an engineer trainee and, at the same time, learn a lot especially on large mining machines. On the other hand, outside of work I'm learning a lot and experiencing different cultures which is a very rare opportunity specially in places like here in Senegal, Africa.”
