We asked Sheeba to reflect on her time at Arora and the experiences that have shaped her career.

What first brought you to Arora, and what do you remember about your early days here?

What first brought me to Arora Engineers was the opportunity to work on complex airport and infrastructure projects involving Special Systems. What I remember most about my early days was how much there was to learn, not just the technical side of systems but also how all the stakeholders coordinate. It was a fast-paced environment, and I quickly realized how important communication, attention to detail, and teamwork are in delivering clear systems project design documents. I also remember learning a lot from experienced engineers and field teams. Being exposed to real-world project challenges early on helped me grow both technically and professionally.

What do you enjoy most about working in special systems?

What I enjoy most about working in Special Systems is that the work directly impacts airport operations, safety, and the passenger experience. I like the variety and complexity of systems such as Electronic Video Information Display Systems (EVIDS), Access Control, Video Surveillance, Structured cabling, and Public Address Systems. I also like collaborating with architects, contractors, and end users to deliver systems design that are both reliable and efficient. Seeing everything work together successfully in a live airport environment is very rewarding.

What advice would you give someone just starting out in this field?

My advice to someone starting out in this field would be to learn how the systems work individually but also understand how they integrate together in a real operational environment. I’d also recommend being willing to learn continuously because technology and system requirements are always evolving. Don’t be afraid to ask questions, work closely with experienced engineers, and spend time in the field with a senior personal for surveying of existing conditions and creating punchlist for completed construction projects because hands-on experience is extremely valuable. Communication is also important in this field. You’ll often coordinate with IT teams, operations, contractors, vendors, and end users, so being able to explain technical design and issues clearly can make a big difference.

Looking Ahead

From her start as Manik’s intern to her role today, Sheeba’s 20-year journey reflects the value of dedication, adaptability, and deep expertise. Her contributions continue to support both project success and the teams she works alongside.

We are proud to celebrate this milestone and grateful for Sheeba’s continued impact at Arora.
