Talk to me about

💫 Breaking into tech🛰️ Working remotely for the first time

I design and lead projects involving web applications, cross platform mobile apps, GIS tools and processes for major pipeline clients in Houston, TX. -------- Hi! I am a dynamic full-stack .NET developer, with a proven track record of bringing innovative products from conception to production. My career has been a rewarding journey, filled with collaboration, challenges, and the joy of creating solutions that empower individuals and teams. I specialize in web application development, where I leverage the power of .NET and Angular. Additionally, I bring a diverse skill set that spans across data analysis, BI engineering, as well as GIS, desktop, and mobile development. I love building tools that automate tasks, handle big data seamlessly, and present information in a way that just clicks. My mission is to boost productivity with smart algorithms and streamlined processes. Looking ahead, my goal is to incorporate AI in my work, automate more tasks, and leverage data effectively. I am particularly excited about being part of AI-focused projects and contributing to the cutting edge of technology. I am open to connecting with like-minded professionals, collaborating on innovative projects, and exploring opportunities in the AI space. Let's connect and explore how we can create meaningful impact together.

Talk to me about

💫 Breaking into tech🛰️ Working remotely for the first time

I'm a Senior Product Manager with a unique career trajectory that encompasses diverse roles and successful transition into Product Management from an unconventional background. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Electronics & Communication Engineering (ECE), but pivoted towards a Master's in Management Information Systems (MIS), blending analytical and managerial disciplines. My professional journey kicked off at Amazon as a Business Analyst, but my thirst for new challenges led me to transition into Program Management, where I honed my communication skills for cross-functional collaboration and process enhancement. However, my true passion reignited when I collaborated closely with Product Managers. Wrestling with imposter syndrome, I proactively embarked on pet projects that allowed me to delve into Product Management. Now, with 6+ years experience as a full-fledged Product Manager, I've never looked back. I'm an active participant in the Merit community as both a mentor and mentee. I firmly believe that every journey holds invaluable lessons to be shared. Whether you're charting a non-linear career path, navigating role shifts, or aiming to transition into Product Management from an unconventional background, I'm here to provide guidance, share insights, and help you overcome any doubts.

Talk to me about

💫 Breaking into tech🛰️ Working remotely for the first time

As I have grown into a more senior role and led different projects over the past couple of years, I feel that the one thing I am missing out on is the opportunity to give back to the community what I have learned over the years. I want to listen to different perspectives, understand what challenges people face, and help them take on these challenges by offering guidance. I would also like to find a mentor who could help me understand how I can grow as a professional.

Talk to me about

💫 Breaking into tech🛰️ Working remotely for the first time

I am a software engineering coach passionated about the use of technology for social impact. After a completing my computer science studies in France, I spent 12 years at Google New York. I first worked as a software engineer and team lead on Google Maps and Google Web Search. Later I joined, as a founding member, the Google Crisis Response team to use technology to help people impacted by natural disasters. I am now coaching tech companies and startups in US, France, Kenya and Haiti to help them build their engineering culture and apply software engineering best practices to create better products and ship them faster.

Throughout my career, I benefited a lot from mentors: my university teachers, fellow coworkers at Google, or people I met through various tech events. So I want to be able to give back to people who one day will also give back by mentoring themselves. Mentoring is a 2 way interactions: when I mentor I alway learn something from my mentoring session .

💫 Breaking into tech🛰️ Working remotely for the first time

I unfortunately never had a good mentor in my career and had to figure out everything on my own. I wish to share my knowledge with others so that they can avoid some of the mistakes I've made, and at the same time learn from others too.

💫 Breaking into tech🛰️ Working remotely for the first time

"Believe me, my journey has not been a simple journey of progress. There have been many ups and downs, and it is the choices that I made at each of those times that have helped shape what I have achieved." ~Satya Nadella The above quote hits so close to my life both professionally and personally. Being passionate about learning led me to pursue different roles in my career which helped me develop strong foundations as a technical Product Manager driving cross-functional teams to deliver complex implementations with natural leadership qualities, critical thinking, and data-driven decision-making skills. I am passionate about design, experiment-driven culture, obsessed with delightful user experience, and ability to bridge the online and offline world My journey has taught me that the keys to success are: grit, to collaborate, empathize, be resilient and make quick decisions based on the evidence.

Meeting new people and learning from their career and personal experiences. A guide where we could discuss and navigate.
