• This role was all about serving others and helping them be more productive. Mainly through tools, sharing knowledge, proposing changes in ways of working and providing support.
• Working on the same team as below ⤵️, but this time working on things like the buidsystem and gamedev tooling.

• My team was the equivalent of a Growth department in a SaaS company. We would run monetization/engagement experiments on the smaller King games that "only" had a few million users (as opposed to 100s of millions Candy Crush had). The successful learnings were then moved to the big games like Candy Crush.
• My day-to-day work was implementing the experimental features onto the games. I worked in three different games (in different periods): Farm Heroes Super Saga, Diamond Diaries Saga and Pyramid Solitaire Saga. We were 2/3 programmers per game. The code was in C++.
• I learned a lot about Product, experimentation and the kind of impact (in terms of $$) a small team can have in a big organization. I also learned a lot about Clean Code and pragmatic engineering practices.

• My first kid was born when I was 21, and before finishing university. I interviewed for King when he was 10 days old. When they made me the offer, I told them I would start in June to have time to wrap up university. In the end, 90% of my time went into parenting and I didn't finish my degree. Most Software Engineers on their 20s have a degree, but how many have a lovely and super smart child?

• This was a gap year from university to do a full-time internship. (Cisco International Internship Program)
• My team was part of Cisco Cloud. At that time, Cloud computing was taking off and Cisco was trying to build something alternative to AWS. We were building the monitoring/observability platform (think CloudWatch). Cisco Cloud ended up being canceled, but it was a fun first real-world full-time work experience.
• The most valuable learnings I got from that time have to do with the multicultural environment that an international internship program creates (brightest kids from universities all over the world, living together in the same place). I also learned quite a bit about systems engineering and DevOps.
