After one year in a Government research laboratory, Wal joined Fairchild Australia where, over five years, he gained experience in engineering, product marketing, and manufacturing.

He set up a thick film hybrid facility at Fairchild just prior to dramatic changes in tariffs which forced the company to close in Australia, and which allowed the launch of Hybrid Electronics Australia in 1974.

Since 1974, Wal has participated in development and manufacturing of thick film microcircuits covering products ranging from toaster timers to missile computers.

Wal has had a wide experience of manufacturing in Australia, Singapore, China, Malaysia and the Philippines.
