── What kind of work are you in charge of at Hase Metals?

Currently, I specialize in CAD. In particular, I am in charge of the "drawing" process. I am the newest member of the CAD team (as of July 2024).
Based on the three-dimensional drawings received from customers, our drawing work involves breaking them down into multiple flat parts and converting them into CAD data.

In addition, as part of the training, we regularly check the delivered materials.

─── What did you study in your home country Nepal?

I studied at Pulchowk campus of Tribhuvan university, the largest university in Nepal.
My specialty is "mechanical engineering." I also studied economics, focusing on design and manufacturing processes.

── How did you know that Hase Metal Corporation in Japan is recruiting engineers from overseas?

After graduating from university, I worked at a company in Nepal, but I felt that I wanted to work abroad.

I got to know a recruitment agency called "Japal", which connects Japanese companies and Nepalese engineers, and after three interviews, I received an offer from Hase Metals.

── Why did you want to work at Hase Metal?

While I was investigating what kind of company it was, I was attracted to know that not only sheet metal processing, machining, etc., but also various processes are performed in one company.

The metalworking company had the impression of "making only the same kind of parts," but Hase Metals is different. I understood that it was a company that made various things according to requests from various customers.
I thought that it would be a great learning experience for me, and I felt that it seemed more interesting than anything else, and I wanted to work at Hase Metal.

── How did you learn Japanese?

In addition to my mother tongue, Nepali, I learned English when I was a university student. I started learning Japanese after I joined Hase Metals. I studied hard for five months, but Japanese was difficult and hard to memorize.

There is a program to study Japanese in Japal, and engineers can take it without paying their own expenses, so I take it once a week. I also watch and learn Japanese language programs on Youtube and podcasts during my private time.

Now I can gradually communicate in Japanese.
All of my seniors at Hase Metal are very kind, so they are very helpful.

── What kind of technology do you want to learn from now on and what kind of engineer do you want to be?

Currently, during OJT (On the Job Training), I cherish the attitude of trying to work anyway, under the supervision of my seniors. What I did not understand is actively asking questions and getting new learning by being taught.
Immediately after joining the company, I was only looking at the work of my seniors, but now I can get them to do relatively easy tasks while having them check.

Hase Metal is a company that performs various processes in one company and can be integrated production, and I feel that each process has great meaning.
So, from now on, I would like to be able to experience various processes and be assigned a job, not just CAD.
In the future, I would like to become not only a professional engineer with a broad knowledge of the processing process, but also a leader who can lead the team with my own decision making, and do a "new job" that the company has never challenged before with that team.
