Joshua Osborne

Joined the Solutions Team in 2004 after studying for a Computer Science degree. My job is essentially to ‘know stuff about computers’, which I do, and to help solve customer problems. I look after the computers here in the office as well as doing tech support and knowing stuff about Artlantis and Lightworks. I enjoy music, movies, games, hardware, software, boring textbooks, and cake. I also enjoy solving very curly technical problems.

Jonathan Breen

I (am a petrol-head) moved to New Zealand in 2011 after traveling around the world. I gained a BSc Hons in Architecture in Ireland and have used ArchiCAD in an academic and professional environment since 2005. I have extensive experience in customer service and have been involved in highly technical roles requiring an aptitude to problem solving and alternative thinking. I provide support for architects and draftspersons in the use of ArchiCAD and Cadimage tools and assist in the production & quality tests of our vast range of Objects & Tools.

Tate Gibbes
Support
I (the other new guy) gained my Diploma of Architectural Technology in 2001. I have worked for a number of firms doing a vast array of work ranging from basic house alterations, to high end residential, some light commercial and even a state of the art pig pennery.  I spent a lot of time learning, implementing and teaching fellow staff members good draughting practices to get the most of both ArchiCAD and, of course, the awesome Cadimage Tools (shameless little plug). I also run the Auckland ArchiCAD BIM User Group, so if you are interested in joining us, feel free to email me.
