Private equity with engineering background

Dear monkeys, What is a good strategy to break into Private equity with engineering background and first experience? I graduated from European tier-1 engineering school plus BA in economics. I have experience as a R&D engineer and as a sales engineer. Where can I get started? Thanks !
