Daniel Rühle
Field Service Engineer Mannheim, Germany
„ABB was present when I was thinking about my next career steps.“
Daniel Rühle’s career has been entwined with ABB for many years. He initially connected with the company on the customer side, before joining ABB in 2018 as a field service engineer.
Starting his career in a smaller company focused on analytical measurement technology and gaining international experience Daniel wanted to grow and gain further professional experience on the manufacturer's side.
ABB had already made a good impression on Daniel, which made him consider the company as a potential employer. "ABB was there when I was thinking about the next steps in my career." And although there was already an open position in field service at the time, he was initially hesitant to apply. "When I read the job description, I was unsure if my qualifications would meet the requirements of the position." However, his doubts were quickly dispelled following a conversation with the hiring manager, now his team leader, and Daniel submitted his application.
Even during the recruitment process, Daniel appreciated the flexibility shown to him. Despire the advertised position being in a service area far from his current location at the time, ABB offered him the option to work in an area close to his home. "All the promises that were made at the time were kept exactly as promised and they worked with me to find a flexible and optimal solution for me." These flexible working conditions enable Daniel to return home each evening after customer appointments to spend time with family and friends. "Field service includes occasional on-call duties at the weekend, however, I have the opportunity to compensate for these times by taking the corresponding hours off." When asked what he likes about working in Field Service at ABB, Daniel says without hesitation: "Freedom and flexibility - being able to organize myself as much as possible and take responsibility for my own working day."
The conditions were right for Daniel from the beginning, and his team played a significant role in this. "Despite the size of the company, we have a very informal environment. Our team harmonize very well and we complement each other". He likes to emphasize the open and appreciative atmosphere that he experiences every day. "There is no hierarchical thinking in our team, no differences are made." The mix of experienced team members and younger colleagues enriches the mutual exchange, enabling Daniel to go to work every day with a good feeling.
