As we continue to highlight our staff during our 50th Anniversary celebrations, this month we would like to introduce Zach Nilsson, our new Optical Product Engineer. We caught up with Zach to find out what interested him to work within the industry and the hobbies he has outside of work.
I became interested in this industry after using an FS5 in grad school. I also participated in the installation of the system with the previous US Engineer for EI. It was a positive experience and I decided that it was a job that I would enjoy.
What I am most looking forward to is being able to travel round the US more than I ever have. I am also excited to get to learn about, and work on, all the instruments that I haven’t used before.
I enjoy woodworking and tinkering with electronics. I also enjoy playing computer games.
I have recently started racing RC cars. I haven’t had much time for it in this year since I was finishing up my Ph.D but I am excited to get going again.
You would probably find me building something in the garage or playing a video game.
My goal is to gain the knowledge I need to be an effective member of the Edinburgh Instruments team and hopefully not cause too many issues along the way.
If you have enjoyed learning about Zach and his interesting hobbies, why not follow us on Twitter, LinkedIn and Facebook.
