After graduating he worked as a Project Engineer and Systems Analyst for New Zealand Railways until 1986. He then joined BP Oil New Zealand to work as a Project Engineer for Aviation, LPG and Oil Installations and finished as Chief Engineer for New Zealand and Pacific regions.
In 1993 Geethal started his own Engineering Consultancy business - Geethal & Associates - where he worked with oil and electricity companies. He has also project managed various community building projects.
In 1998 Geethal decided to do what he really wanted to do - software development. And so Geethal Data Systems Limited - GDSL - was established. As a result various software applications for a range of clients both large and small were developed.
Our primary product GeethalSystem has evolved over about the past ten years of development time to the product today.
