Their stories remind us that transformation happens through collaboration, curiosity and the courage to keep learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:70px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-from-intern-to-engineer\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">From Intern to Engineer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:66px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile is-vertically-aligned-center\" style=\"grid-template-columns:33% auto\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gentherm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Mernas-Graduation.png\" alt=\"Merna Aziz's Graduation from Oakland University\" class=\"wp-image-7475 size-full\"\/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Merna\u2019s path at Gentherm reflects persistence and steady development. Starting as an intern in 2019, she transitioned into a co-op position and was hired as a Test Engineer later that same year.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Her early experience was shaped by the people around her, who played a key role in her development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><span style=\"color:#6F2DBD;\">\u201cEarly on, I learned a lot from the people around me. My teammates and mentors were always willing to answer questions, share their experience and help me better understand the work.\u201d<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That support helped her build confidence, strengthen her skills and carry that same collaborative mindset into her own work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With a Bachelor\u2019s degree in Electrical Engineering from Oakland University and a Master\u2019s in Engineering Management, Merna brings both technical depth and strategic thinking to her work.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:66px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-engineering-intelligence-in-action\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Engineering Intelligence in Action<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today, Merna is transitioning to the EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) team, where she supports multiple projects and continues building her expertise. EMC focuses on ensuring electronic systems operate properly without interference, a critical aspect of modern technology.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Stepping into this space hasn\u2019t been without challenges. Learning new testing methods, tools and specifications required her to quickly adapt, but she approached it with curiosity and structure:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Reviewing technical specifications and reference reports&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Conducting independent research<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Partnering with subject matter experts&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:70px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-a-day-in-the-life\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Day in the Life<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No two days look exactly the same for Merna.
