Being a female engineer, I would like to encourage other women to enter this industry with no fear and join the company that appreciates you as a professional with your unique experience and opinion as well as matches your personal values.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>[\u2026]<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>What first drew you to engineering and this industry?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cSince I was a kid, I always liked being a problem solver. I used to take a defect item, break it down and investigate the source of the problem to make it work. Yes, I went through a lot of failures trying to figure out the solution, but I was always up for a challenge and never gave up. I enjoy challenging problems that require a creative approach.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>For example, in the place where I came from, toys were very expensive and my family could not afford them, so most of the time, my siblings and I used to create our own toys. The situation challenged us to think outside the box. It was quite common at the time to attach wheels to a piece of wood and use it to slide down the hill. A few things that I was able to do is give aesthetic features to a piece of wood, attach another piece of wood with wheels, so my sister could join me at the same time, and finally was able to add a braking mechanism to the cart. Those fun activities always encouraged me to think about being an engineer.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Since childhood, my strong belief was that engineers are problem solvers and world developers, and I always wanted to be one of them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":19405,"menu_order":0,"template":"","our-people-categories":[95],"class_list":["post-14300","our-people","type-our-people","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","our-people-categories-women-in-engineering"],"acf":{"all_industries":false,"all_technologies":false,"all_solutions":false,"all_products":false,"interest_title":"This may be of interest to you","interest_links":"","title_subscribe":"Subscribe to our newsletter","email_placeholder":"Your e-mail","image_banner":{"ID":5294,"id":5294,"title":"meet_Aemah_Badri","filename":"meet_Aemah_Badri.jpg","filesize":117159,"url":"https:\/\/fischer.e-novision.ch\/app\/uploads\/2020\/12\/meet_Aemah_Badri.jpg","link":"https:\/\/fischer.e-novision.ch\/de\/meet_aemah_badri-2\/","alt":"","author":"3","description":"","caption":"","name":"meet_aemah_badri-2","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":0,"date":"2021-09-27 11:28:35","modified":"2021-09-27 11:28:35","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/fischer.e-novision.ch\/wp\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":2600,"height":1000,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/fischer.e-novision.ch\/app\/uploads\/2020\/12\/meet_Aemah_Badri.jpg","thumbnail-width":600,"thumbnail-height":231,"medium":"https:\/\/fischer.e-novision.ch\/app\/uploads\/2020\/12\/meet_Aemah_Badri.jpg","medium-width":1400,"medium-height":538,"medium_large":"https:\/\/fischer.e-novision.ch\/app\/uploads\/2020\/12\/meet_Aemah_Badri.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":295,"large":"https:\/\/fischer.e-novision.ch\/app\/uploads\/2020\/12\/meet_Aemah_Badri.jpg","large-width":2600,"large-height":1000,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/fischer.e-novision.ch\/app\/uploads\/2020\/12\/meet_Aemah_Badri.jpg","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":591,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/fischer.e-novision.ch\/app\/uploads\/2020\/12\/meet_Aemah_Badri.jpg","2048x2048-width":2048,"2048x2048-height":788,"preload":"https:\/\/fischer.e-novision.ch\/app\/uploads\/2020\/12\/meet_Aemah_Badri.jpg","preload-width":15,"preload-height":6,"admin":"https:\/\/fischer.e-novision.ch\/app\/uploads\/2020\/12\/meet_Aemah_Badri.jpg","admin-width":200,"admin-height":77}},"mobile_banner":false,"industries":false,"technologies":false,"solutions":false,"produits":false},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fischer.e-novision.ch\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/our-people\/14300"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fischer.e-novision.ch\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/our-people"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fischer.e-novision.ch\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/our-people"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/fischer.e-novision.ch\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/our-people\/14300\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":23967,"href":"https:\/\/fischer.e-novision.ch\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/our-people\/14300\/revisions\/23967"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fischer.e-novision.ch\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/19405"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fischer.e-novision.ch\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14300"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"our-people-categories","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fischer.e-novision.ch\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/our-people-categories?post=14300"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
