Qasim
Data Engineer Intern
I am more confident in my professional software development career thanks to my experience at Glidewell this summer. First, I learned software engineering practices and modern programming languages from educational resources made available to me. Then I practiced what I learned by writing production-level code, receiving code reviews, and deploying my application to production. Finally, I went to the production floor to see my code in action. Each step of the way, I worked with my team, who gave constructive feedback and helped me become a better software engineer.
