There are parts of becoming an engineer that are difficult to understand until you are actually working alongside other engineers. What employers notice when graduates apply for their first role, how much technical ability matters compared with communication, whether it is better to specialise early or explore different disciplines, and what the transition from university into consulting actually feels like are all things that become clearer through conversations with people

A little behind the scenes from earlier this week. We brought some of our emerging engineers together for a photoshoot at Goldfish & Bay, and it turned into a very fun morning. Plenty of laughs, a few questionable poses and some great moments in between. But there’s a little more behind these photos. We want to do more to share the experiences of our emerging engineers, while creating more opportunities to connect with students who are curious about engineering and where a ca

Most people look at a site and see land. Sina Arbabzadeh sees how the entire site needs to work. He reads the high and low points, where water naturally wants to travel, how the site connects to the road and what is happening beyond the property boundary. He notices retaining walls, kerbs, pits, changes in vegetation and signs of previous ponding. Before design begins, he is already building a three dimensional picture of the site. That perspective comes from more than 20 yea

With a bigger pipeline of projects ahead, Goldfish & Bay is growing fast, and we’re looking for Senior and Intermediate Engineers who want to be part of what we’re building. We’re currently expanding across: ⚙️ Mechanical ⚡ Electrical 💧 Hydraulic 🔥 Fire Services 🏗️ Civil We want engineers who are technically strong, enjoy solving problems and aren’t afraid to have an opinion. People who want more than just another desk, another project number and another Monday morning mee

Ram joined Goldfish & Bay in June 2025, bringing a rare combination of on-site construction experience and digital design expertise. With a background in both BIM and delivery, he approaches every model with the mindset of someone who has seen what works in the real world and what doesn’t. Currently working on tender-stage projects, Ram spends his days reviewing drawings, developing coordinated BIM models, and ensuring the design is practical, buildable, and ready for prici
