Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

I am a joining and sealing engineer within the body structures department.
Since we are an off-cycle team, this involves investigating new joining technologies to be used on future projects as well as, figuring methods to cope with problems relating to the current joining techniques.
