Finding Career Growth in a Remote Atmosphere

About this session

I started working from home 6 years ago - first as a freelance, then as a software engineer in an all remote team in GoDaddy. During my time in GoDaddy I was promoted to engineering manager and helped my team members with their individual career growth. Last year I left GoDaddy in order to build my own startup, what timing - I know! In this chat I will focus on:

  • What are the specific challenges (and benefits!) to growing professionally while working remotely
  • The professional flexibility of working remotely
  • How to get noticed as part of a remote team

After over a decade of building software, first as an engineer and then as engineering manager, I felt it was time for me to set out on my dream - to build my own startup. I decided to focus on simpler scheduling for parents because family life challenges often get overlooked, and I believe it can be simpler, easier, better. That’s why almost a year ago I started building ParentScheduler, an app that helps caregivers coordinate and collaborate around kids schedules.
