Meet Ollie 👋

Ollie Lee was studying T Level Design and Development for Engineering and Manufacturing at South Devon College when he started a placement at Oriole Networks in Paignton. He'd never worked with lasers invisible to the human eye before, let alone fibre optic communications equipment.

He got stuck in anyway, and it paid off. Several of his ideas have since been used in systems delivered to Oriole's manufacturing test team, and the company has offered him a Level 6 BSc Apprenticeship.

"My own career aspirations have never been so wild," Ollie says.

This September he continues at South Devon College on an Integrated Technologies Engineering degree, alongside his new apprenticeship. A second South Devon College student has now joined Oriole on the same placement route.
