DISCO HI-TEC (SINGAPORE) PTE LTD

Why did you decide to join the company?

At first, I was a bit unsure because the name felt so unique. But the more I learned about DISCO, the more I realized it’s not just a name—it’s one of the top companies in Japan’s semiconductor industry, constantly growing and evolving.
Growing up with a love for Japanese culture, working for a Japanese company feels like the perfect fit. And honestly, I couldn’t think of a better place to kick-start my career than DISCO.

What kind of job are you in charge of?

I’m part of the Customer Engineering Division, where we handle the technical side of DISCO products. This includes machine troubleshooting, installations, and offering technical advice to customers—basically, anything involving customer support. It’s challenging at times, but you learn something new every day and grow more skilled. The best part is the satisfaction of solving a problem and seeing the customer’s appreciation.
What’s even better is DISCO’s unique structure, which encourages you to explore beyond your role. While I haven’t done it yet, I’ve seen colleagues transition from technical roles to excelling in sales. It’s inspiring to know we’re not limited and can grow into well-rounded professionals!

How is working in the company?

So far, it’s been great! The company organizes plenty of activities that change yearly to align with its goals, many of which promote healthy interaction among staff.
There are fun events like the annual Olympics, where everyone can join in various games. I also recently went on a company trip to Japan, which was an amazing chance to connect with colleagues from other regions—such an eye-opening experience!
That said, DISCO isn’t just about fun. People here work incredibly hard, and it’s truly inspiring to see such passionate individuals giving their all every day.

What are your plans for the future?

I aim to keep learning every day and contribute to the company’s mission in the best way possible.

Messages for the younger generations　

This question makes me feel old, but here goes:
Not every day is smooth sailing—there are good days and rainy days. The key is never giving up on your dreams. With a strong will, you can achieve things you once thought impossible, and at DISCO, you do need a lot of ‘WILL’.
