I started my development career at my current company and I’ve had nothing but support from my line manager, he works with me on my career goals and I’m so thankful for his support, he gives me projects to challenge me and even though it can be tough it pushes me and I love it. It’s so rewarding in itself to have that support and it’s only made me a better developer. I then get to see my work live on our software and the proud feeling I get of what I’ve done is the best feeling 😊
Fully remote, flexible working, using my technical stack and a good team.
I think I can create pretty anything to solve my/others' needs is pretty amazing.
Help others 💙
Onboarding other engineers and coaching them to become the best versions of themselves.
Generally doing the work makes me better at the work — at a pace which will allow me to do more interesting things in the future. That reality can often be interrupted, but it's pretty rewarding most of the time.
Two things:
Getting the satisfaction after users/clients are very happy with the software you created. The "This is really amazing" gives me a lot satisfaction.
Getting paid for the job I do. We need to make a living in this world.
The most rewarding part of my job (except for the salary) is communicating with the others and looking for new solutions together. The ideas that people come up with from time to time are absolutely brilliant, and I like listening to them.
It is what I like about our company: it is not only a way how to make an extra $1000 a month, but it’s also a place where students from schools and universities can share their ideas and work to develop them. They don’t have to spend a lot of time here in the office (not more than 15 hours per week), but it’s a good chance for them to become more financially independent from their parents.
Solving complex problems that effect hundreds of engineers. My work with has the opportunity to simplify developer experience and to accelerate engineers working with Google Cloud by a decent amount. Conversely, the not so great work I do is very obvious because of the large impact and highlights areas I can improve on.
Most rewarding is helping non-profits raise money with our software (we do online auctions for non-profits).
Next is probably more red than green as far as commits go. I'm working on a nearly 20 year old code base, so, when I'm making a refactor type of change, I get a lot of joy out of removing more code than I add.
