I'm a Sr. Hardware Design Engineer for the "really big" company out in Hillsboro. Our group does board products with server grade networking interfaces. Which is to say, we do 1 and 10 Gigabit optical and copper ethernet ports in various flavors. Stuff you can buy for your server, propriatary form factors for most all of the big OEM's.

When you stream your movies, shop at most big on line retailers, or use pretty much any of the big social networking sites....chances are really good you're using hardware that our group or even yours truly designed.....

Trained as a paramedic. Did that on and off for 7 years, now I am a Rhythm Analysis Technician, or Monitor Technician.

Basically, I sit in a room for 12 hours a day watching heart rates for up to 48 (soon to be expanding to 60) patients, and report abnormalities to the nurses.

I work in Telecom as a Technical Support Engineer. The control center calls us if they can't fix something and we call the vendor if we can't fix it. We support all the transport equipment (fiber optic backbone).
I learn something new everyday, even after 10 years.
