Growing up rurally, Amie learned early on that problems don’t fix themselves. With no engineer nearby, she became the one to pull things apart, understand how they worked, and get them going again. That curiosity became the spark that led her toward engineering.
After finishing Year 13, she completed the ARA pre-trade course and explored different pathways, including maintenance, before discovering that general engineering was where she belonged.
Since joining ENI, Amie has gained hands-on experience across the trade and had the chance to work with advanced technology in our laser bay. Now coming to the end of her apprenticeship, just wrapping up her elective papers, she feels the variety of experiences has set her up well for the future, giving her the freedom to choose where she wants to specialise next.
At ENI, it’s been a privilege to support people like Amie, the next generation of skilled tradespeople. We love creating opportunities, offering real experience with advanced technology, and helping build a genuine pathway into the industry.
