"I didn't even know the names of tools,
and now I design machines from scratch."

Previously assembled machines in the same industry. Having studied 3D CAD, joined RISE ONE
to take on design work. Now handles custom machines from concept design to detailed design.
Why did you decide to join RISE ONE?
At my previous job, I mainly did assembly work, but I always hoped to get involved in design someday.I was drawn to RISE ONE because it offered the chance to take on design workand to build skills across a wide range of tasks, so I decided to join.
When I started, I didn't even know the names of the tools, but my senior colleagues patiently taught me,and I gradually got used to design work. Now I'm involved from the concept stage, and I find it truly rewarding.
What work has left the strongest impression on you so far?
It was the first machine I designed as the lead.The machine measured temperature while pulling a sheet,but the inside was very tight, and the layout wouldn't work with the existing structure.By consulting my supervisor and adopting a new mechanism and structure, I solved the problem.When it finally took shape after much trial and error, I felt a huge sense of accomplishment.The customer also told us it was "easier to use than expected," which gave me confidence as a designer."It's a special environment where you can buildthe machine you envision from the ground up."

What is the workplace like?
It's a "challenge-driven atmosphere."Unusually for our industry, the Mechanical Manufacturing Dept. team is young and actively takes on new technologies and unknown challenges.When you're stuck, senior colleagues offer patient support, so you can take on challenges with confidence.There's little sense of hierarchy.You're free to share technical proposals and ideas, which makes it easy to grow.
What is the workplace like?
Mechanical, software, and electrical engineers all work in the same space,so we can quickly ask things like "Will this electrical part interfere with the mechanism?" or "How should the software handle the timing of this signal line?"Having no walls between departments is a major strength.Beyond work, everyday communication is lively too.We have many young employees, and we sometimes go out to eat after work.Having colleagues who inspire each other technically is a big driver of growth.
What does a typical day look like?

Any message for those considering joining us?
I also entered this industry without even knowing the names of tools.Even without experience, you'll be fine as long as you're interested in MONODUKURI (Manufacturing).It's a special environment where you can build the machine you envision from the ground up.If you're interested in design work, please come see our workplace.
