NFPA is dedicated to providing comprehensive career information to support emerging engineers and technicians. We want to offer more than just statistics and salary data; we aim to showcase the dynamic and rewarding nature of a fluid power career through real-life stories.
We’re seeking professionals willing to share their job stories. By highlighting your daily work, the challenges you overcome, and the successes you achieve, you can provide invaluable guidance to students exploring careers in the industry. Roles like “design engineer,” “sales engineer,” and “applications engineer” can be complex and varied. Your story can help students understand what these positions really involve.
Our workforce program participants are enthusiastic and eager to learn, but they need clear examples of what different engineering roles entail. Your perspective can help them see the possibilities within the fluid power industry. What’s a typical day like for you? What do you love most about your job?
Our NFPA Education and Technology Foundation section of this website already serves as a vital resource, offering insights into NFPA member companies and various career paths within fluid power. By adding your story, we can enhance this resource, making it even more engaging and informative for students.
Are you ready to inspire the next generation of fluid power professionals? If you’re willing to share your story, please contact Mary Pluta at mpluta@nfpa.com. Your experiences will be featured on the Fluid Power Careers section of this website, helping to spark interest and guide aspiring engineers.
