My first programming job was in marketing.

They needed someone to make some simple websites for campaigns. Wasn't really a programming job. I started with stuff like Joomla and when they wanted more customizations than the plugins delivered, I got more and more into coding.

After a year or so I switched to an open position in R&D.
