Graduate Software Engineers (Auckland) (Jan 2024)

Our CEO started here as a grad. So did our Executive of Product Development. When we say career growth at Fisher & Paykel is tangible, we mean it. 

Our Graduate programme holds nothing back. Grads work hands-on in project teams, innovating and influencing real product design. Deep-diving into Product Development offers real-time learning from some of the best in industry, and we’re stoked to have you there – grads bring fresh perspective that means we learn from you, too. Some of our best ideas have come from grads, and some of their best career stories have come from us. 

Not to mention, we’ve just been named as the Top Graduate Employer for RD/Manufacturing in 2023!

Beyond loving the day-to-day work, grads enjoy our collaborative working style and continuous learning experience. 

“This is a great industry to learn in. There are heaps of opportunities, and there’s a real openness here to new ways, ideas and options – different perspectives are valued; it’s collaborative and outcome oriented. Everyone works together, and the culture is one of really valuing sustainability – everybody is really passionate and driven to improve.”
