Top SchoolDavid Mackenzie is a seasoned Senior Engineer with 34 years of experience spanning software development, system and network administration, and low-level programming in C and assembly.

David pairs deep technical fundamentals with creative skills in audio/video production and technical writing, often contributing beyond his role to improve team effectiveness.
