＜Senior Employee Interview: S.U. (Engineer from Thailand)＞
Q: What brought you to Japan?
A: I was deeply inspired by the Japanese robotics development I saw in my childhood. To realize my dream of developing rehabilitation support robots, I decided to learn cutting-edge technology and work here in Japan.

Q: Why did you choose to join AZAPA?
A: Through my graduate school research, I felt drawn to AZAPA's technology and environment. I was attracted by the fact that I could map out a clear career path as an engineer, as well as the job rotation opportunities.

Q: How has your experience been since joining AZAPA?
A: I have truly grown here. The flexible environment allows me to explore the work that suits me best, while also teaching me the rigor of structured, high-quality work. Thanks to the kind and thorough support of my senior colleagues, I am able to take on new challenges every day.

Q: Have you faced any challenges?
A: The biggest challenge was the language barrier, but I overcame it with the help of my colleagues. Also, I love that international employees aren't given "special treatment" just because we are foreigners; we are treated as equals, which makes it an incredibly comfortable place to work.

Q: What does "taking on challenges" mean to you?
A: It means breaking through barriers and acquiring new strengths. Gaining courage and confidence through mastering Japanese, I want to actively take on new challenges, such as participating in meetings with external clients.
