INTERVIEW
My main responsibilities are schedule management and equipment maintenance. Our company operates two manufacturing sites: one with about 50 staff and another with about 10. I oversee the smaller site, managing overall schedules, conducting inspections and repairs, ensuring workplace safety, and implementing improvement initiatives to boost production efficiency.
I find it rewarding to be part of the motor division, which is now a key growth area. As production expands, identifying issues with the team and solving them together gives me a strong sense of collective progress. Working on prototypes is often challenging, but when repeated trial and error finally leads to success, the sense of achievement is tremendous.
I was attracted by the company’s stable foundation, strong growth potential, and a culture that values each individual. I also wanted an environment where I could grow while contributing my skills, and the company’s commitment to technological innovation was a major draw.
I support customers, follow up after sales, and attend exhibitions. On the marketing side, I handle website updates, create digital content, and manage newsletters. My work spans both sales and marketing activities.
I feel most fulfilled when I can bring ideas—whether mine or someone else’s—into reality. Matching our products to customer needs or transforming company messages into videos or web content gives me a strong sense of achievement.
I first learned about Microtech through an introduction. At the time, I had no knowledge of encoders, so as part of training I worked in the manufacturing department. Over time, I realized I wanted more interaction and variety, which led me to transfer into sales. It turned out to be a great fit, and I now enjoy the challenges and stimulation of this role every day.
I belong to the development division of the Engineering Department, focusing on new products, custom solutions, and demo units for exhibitions. I also work in technical sales, attending trade shows and visiting customers alongside the sales team. Our mission is to turn customer requirements into reality, whether that’s through new product development or customized modifications of existing models. Beyond development, I handle project management and coordination, and conduct market research by listening directly to users at exhibitions and site visits.
The most rewarding part is solving customer challenges through our own developments. One of our core principles is to “enhance customer equipment value with solutions that don’t exist elsewhere.” We act as a go-to partner for clients who face issues unsolvable with off-the-shelf products, providing specialized expertise in motors and rotary encoders. That’s why I feel a unique sense of purpose knowing “only we can solve this.”
I believed I could do work here that exceeded my own expectations. I’ve loved creating things since childhood and wanted to build products from scratch as a developer. During my studies at a technical high school, I encountered MTL’s µDD motors. At first, I thought of the company as just another motor manufacturer, but after speaking with recruiters, I realized they truly enjoyed the process of making products. That passion convinced me. The chance to develop unique products in an environment where creation itself is fun felt like the ideal place for me. After internships and graduation research confirmed my impression, I decided to join MTL with full confidence.
