      Yes, I work in engineering and use bits of maths, science, and computer science to solve problems. Lots of mathematicians and scientists use computer science, like writing some code to do tricky calculations or to automate things that would take a long time to do by hand!

      There’s some maths – but nothing really beyond GCSE level. A bit of computer science (but mostly again first principals stuff) but a lot of experience and history of having seen lots of things that I can learn from. Sometimes that is all about people and how to deal with them, sometimes it’s more technology related. Everything you learn over the years has a role to play somewhere.
