Description:

1st Septemper, 2017, I started my first job as a programmer. After 8 months of asking dumb questions about git and vs code, I quit! 7 months down the line, I joined a startup with less than half of the salary I was already earning. However, what I thought was the worst phase of my life, turned out to be one of the best decisions of my life. However, the pressure at the startup was intense. Within the first month, I truncated the production database :P. After 2 years filled with countless mistakes and learnings, I joined the core product team of a reputed company. But this journey was far from easy. I made several mistakes, I had to learn several concepts, technologies. In this talk, I will share my ups and downs of my last 5 years - the heartaches, the frustration and the triumphs. I will also share how my life changed( for the good) in the last 5 years, so buckle up and join me on this wild ride through the tech world!
