Siti Fatin Nazila Amit – graduate control & automation engineer
I graduated in 2018 and joined the Wood team in Brunei working with other
female engineers. I aim to support and empower other women, and encou-
rage the future generation of women to be a part of the development of our
nations. We need to be confident in our capability to make an impact and
positive change in shaping the world.

Bonani Langan – associate remediation engineer
As a woman in engineering, I think it is my job to be a meaningful role mo-
del for future generations. Women are crucial to helping provide diversity in
thought, we must create an environment where women can be involved in
developing and designing smart, sustainable, technology-based solutions. I
will continue to mentor women coming up in the workforce, acknowledge
their accomplishments, and advocate for other women so that we can build
a diverse and inclusive workplace.

Nawar Chapman – projects delivery director
I will shape the world by sharing my experience, mistakes and lessons lear-
ned with the next generation to demonstrate that you can have a successful
career in engineering and a family life at the same time. My advice is to always
challenge yourself and never operate in your comfort zone, all the exciting
things happen outside of it. Engineering is a very fulfilling career with coun-
tless opportunities to learn and succeed. Trust me, you will feel very satisfied
to have an influence of how the future will look.

Matilde Ratti – project engineering manager
Engineering will give you a mindset for every action, every task you are going
to do; you will think about it, elaborate and structure your action, shaping
it to be at its best. I enjoy improving my technical knowledge, seeking im-
provements and, where feasible, for alternative solutions. We usually say
women are the focal point for each family: the house chief, responsible for
the children’s growth and busy with multiple commitments. As a woman in
engineering, I use the same strength at work, taking care of the growth of the
collaborators and sharing my knowledge, reaching the final target together.
Chiara Pecchi - project engineer
I was lucky enough to follow the entire EPC contract of a chemical-pharma-
ceutical project: first the engineering and then the construction at site, where
I am even now. Interaction between different departments, vendor coordina-
tion and technical supports, made me grow professionally in the last three
years.
I hope in the future more women will undertake this career, dispelling the myth
that the construction site is a place for men only: during my experience I have
never faced tasks that could be done by a man only and not by me! Shape
the world means changing the way we are used to looking at it!
