Tyler Wessling, an Electrical Engineer at Richglen, has had a sparking career, progressing from a university placement student to a full-time employee. His genuine passion for the trade testifies to how Richglen’s supportive work environment has enabled him to thrive, ultimately enhancing the quality of work delivered to clients.
Riley, Tyler’s younger brother, is following in Tyler’s footsteps, currently undertaking his 4th-year JCU placement with Richglen. Much like his brother, Riley is passionate about electrical engineering, and his experience is shaped by the same supportive work environment that allowed Tyler to thrive.
Tyler first joined Richglen in 2019 as part of a 24-week university placement program. After completing the placement, he was offered a full-time role by his electrical manager.
"The opportunity to continue working here after my placement was exciting," Tyler recalls.
"It felt like a natural fit, and I’m grateful for how welcoming the team has been."
Tyler’s interest in electrical engineering began during his physics studies, where he was drawn to the problem-solving and technical challenges.
"I’ve always loved the challenge and problem-solving aspects of electrical engineering.
“It felt like a natural choice compared to other subjects."
A typical day for Tyler involves collaborating with his team and clients to ensure projects run smoothly.
"We start the day by reviewing the work ahead, addressing safety concerns, and answering any questions from the crew.
“I also stay in close contact with our clients, providing reports to make sure we’re meeting deadlines and keeping our customers up-to-date."
One of the things Tyler and Riley value most about working at Richglen, is the strong sense of teamwork.
"The teamwork is really great here," Tyler said.
"I’ve been fortunate to work alongside engineers who have decades of experience.”
Looking ahead, Tyler and Riley are optimistic about their future and encourage others considering a placement with Richglen to apply, noting that the invaluable skills learned can open doors to multiple career pathways.
"I definitely see myself here long-term," Tyler said.
"Even if I eventually move on, the skills you gain here will be beneficial in the future, no matter what path you take."
Together, both brothers represent the growth and opportunities Richglen offers, continuing a legacy of success and dedication to the industry.
