engineering w/ chance of living abroad

[roongk]

Is there an engineering job based in the US that lets you work or be abroad for few months in a year? I did test&measurement automation and am currently doing CPU validation.

Depends on the company. My last employer had an Engineer in China for most of the year overseeing start up on a new product line.

I am currently working outside the mainland US (Puerto Rico). I am mostly helping the less experienced improve their skills. There are or when the economy gets going, will be jobs for experienced people.

Being a field service engineer is a good way to be sited overseas and collect non-taxable per diem as well. Also, in some companies, one cannot be promoted to upper management unless you either have field experieince or marry the boss'es daughter.
