Empowering Future Developers: Sumeet’s Software Development Internship at Enform NZ
At Enform NZ, we believe that meaningful learning happens when innovation meets opportunity. Our internship programme is designed to give students and emerging professionals hands-on experience with real-world projects – and Sumeet’s journey with us is a perfect example of that vision in action.
Real-World Experience Through the Ensight Education Management System
During his internship, Sumeet contributed to the Role-Based Dashboard Project within our Ensight Education Management System – a platform designed to help educational institutions access data-driven insights and improve decision-making.
The project focused on developing personalised dashboards for different user groups such as tutors, management, and administrators. Each dashboard offers a tailored view of key performance data, allowing users to easily access the information most relevant to their role.
As Sumeet shared,
“Working on this project helped me understand how tailored data visualisation can support smarter decision-making and improve overall efficiency across the organisation.”
This initiative not only enhanced the functionality of Ensight but also gave Sumeet the opportunity to apply his technical knowledge in a real-world environment.
Building Technical Depth and Team Collaboration
Throughout his time at Enform, Sumeet strengthened his skills in modern technologies including the ABP Framework (.NET and Angular), Microsoft SQL Server, Power BI, and PostgreSQL. He also gained practical experience working in an Agile environment, participating in daily stand-ups, software reviews, and sprint feedback sessions.
“I learned how to work efficiently within the Agile framework, which taught me the importance of collaboration, clear communication, and adaptability in delivering quality software.”
This balance of technical growth and team collaboration reflects how Enform’s internship programme prepares future developers for the fast-paced IT industry.
Mentorship and Team Culture at Enform NZ
At Enform NZ, mentorship is at the heart of everything we do. Under the guidance of Pieter, and with ongoing support from Ray Pickett, Joshua, Hayden, and the wider team, Sumeet thrived in an environment that valued curiosity, creativity, and teamwork.
“Everyone’s willingness to guide and share their knowledge made each day a new learning opportunity,” Sumeet noted.
Our interns are treated as part of the team from day one — involved in active projects, client meetings, and even our regular Thursday team activities, whether playing Among Us online or badminton at Waikato Badminton Park. We believe that a strong culture of collaboration and fun fuels innovation.
A Lasting Impact
Sumeet’s growth during his internship is a testament to what’s possible when passion meets opportunity. His work contributed directly to the improvement of a live, impactful product that supports educational outcomes across New Zealand — and his story reflects the kind of real-world success Enform strives to create through every internship.
“The experience has not only strengthened my technical foundation but also inspired me to keep building solutions that create real impact.”
We’re proud to have been part of Sumeet’s professional journey — and excited to continue empowering the next generation of developers and IT professionals across New Zealand.
