Optical design engineer

[ProTerran]

Hello,
I was searching online for a job in the area of optical engineering and I wonder whether an optical engineer (MSc degree) with 2 years of experience (and couple documented successful projects) in designing optical system in the field of defense industry has a real chance of finding/securing a job while still being aboard. Does chances of finding a job significantly increases when a person is actually in the country (of course regarding high skilled engineering jobs)?

I live currently in Europe, and I'd like to relocate to Singapore for a couple years. The idea of moving to Singapore without having a job seems to me too risky.

Best regards.

Have you approached ST Engineering? They would probably be the best chance here with your niche area.
