I've been working in tech as a software engineer for around 5 years now, with my current position being my longest stint.
My previous role was at a company developing software for life insurance providers and I felt like the company was on a downward trajectory both in terms of the culture and the technology in use.
One evening I happened upon an article about a local AI startup getting funding to expand so I visited their website, and sent an email expressing my interest and asking if any positions were available or would soon be available.
I got an email back pretty quickly asking me to send across a CV and to meet at a coffee shop for a short chat.
I then got invited to do a short coding challenge in my own time and to come to an interview.
I joined the company around 3 years ago now, we've grown from around 7 employees when I first joined to around 50 now, with the runway looking pretty positive.
