what do you mean?

I’m currently a mid-level SRE engineer cornering the senior level. My goal is to reach the principal/distinguished levels.

I’ve found myself in the I told you so moments in my team and have had an informal heads-up about a promotion. It’s too soon to even be talking about this, but I hope it gives you enough context as I’m looking forward to you advice because your last comment was really really good. Thank you for taking the time.

I’m not in Silicon Valley or any other tech hub, I’m in a small country in Africa and want to put a dent in the engineering world. A cliché I take very seriously :).

Ohh the more you write the more inspiring it gets. You cleared my thoughts towards what to do, I'll act on it. I checked you website and OSS work, really good stuff

You really motivated me here. Thank you. I'm planning to getting into containerd and kubernetes.

I will have something to show for by the mid-year. I'm sure. Thank you.

How far into your career are you in? I imagine that it is frustrating to see your efforts go to waste.

How did you grow? I imagine that to become a director one must have had a very good IC career and accomplishments.

I think I will have to find something to do on the side because everywhere I went with that I thought I would program a lot I ended up not doing much programming.

Ohh I’m jealous of you. I dream of coming near that number this year on my personal projects.

I’m in the market looking for something in the intersection of infra/systems programming.

It has been tough to get interviews due to my location and experience, but I know I will manage to do it.
