Muktha, R&D Engineer at Siemens

Working at Siemens also means being part of a vibrant and inclusive community. I am based in our Ashby office, and here come together to celebrate a wide range of cultural events like Eid, Diwali, Chinese New Year, Black history month and so many more, with food and activities for the whole office.

Hello, I am Muktha Rajan, currently working as an R&D Engineer at Siemens, where I focus on software projects within R&D. I hold a Bachelor’s in Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering and a master’s in data science.

I joined Siemens in 2022 as a Graduate R&D Engineer. Over the course of the two-year graduate scheme, I had the opportunity to explore different areas like Software, Systems Engineering, Scrum, Testing, Project management, Research, and Sustainability. The exposure was brilliant, and by the end of the scheme, I got to choose where I wanted to go.

What I love the most is knowing that the work we do has real world impact. Whether it’s seeing the Siemens logo on a train or walking through a station we have helped deliver, there is a real sense of pride in knowing I am part of something that supports everyday life.

Alongside my role, I get involved in STEM outreach by visiting schools and university to offer guidance to students. My favourite moment was returning to University of Sheffield, representing Siemens, to deliver a talk in the very hall where I once sat as a student. It was a lovely full-circle moments. Thanks to the volunteering hours Siemens sets aside for employees.

Working at Siemens also means being part of a vibrant and inclusive community. I am based in our Ashby office, and here come together to celebrate a wide range of cultural events like Eid, Diwali, Chinese New Year, Black history month and so many more, with food and activities for the whole office. Even outside of work we maintain this safe space of friendship through outings, badminton evenings and hikes.

Starting a career in a new country wasn’t easy for me, but the support and mentorship I received at Siemens made all the difference. The people around me helped shape me both professionally and personally. And I am proud to now be part of that same support system for those just beginning their journey with Siemens.
