Graduate Software Engineer

Graduate Software Engineer, M.Sc and B.Sc (Hons), Computer Science and Software Engineering (University of Canterbury)

David began working at Allied Telesis in 2011, after completing a successful summer internship here in 2010/2011. This is his first job since finishing university. David's job includes helping to create the many new features that help Allied Telesis compete in an international industry, as well as fixing problems identified by system testers or other developers.

David says...

"Allied Telesis is a great place to work straight out of university, due to the company's relaxed attitude and the excellent support given by managers and other employees. This has allowed me to focus on developing quality software, and I feel I have already made significant contributions to the company.

"I am always solving different problems, which keeps me interested and provides excellent opportunities to develop my skills. Every day I become more confident in my ability to fix issues and add value to our software."
