About this session
Whatever doesn't fit the mold: Get 30 minutes with a mentor to discuss your needs. Be it help with some code, discussing through an issue with your business, help for something at work or an issue with a project.
Your mentor
As a Senior Software Engineer with 8+ years of experience at Netflix, Amazon, and Spotify, I’ve interviewed, mentored, and collaborated with engineers across multiple levels and specialties. I’ve built and scaled products that reach hundreds of millions of users, and I enjoy helping others strengthen their technical, architectural, and career skills.
In these sessions, I focus on frontend and full-stack development, system design, and career growth strategies — from technical deep dives to interview prep or portfolio reviews. I usually conduct sessions on weeknights (ET) and weekends, but I’m flexible to accommodate other time zones.
Looking forward to understanding your goals and helping you grow in your engineering journey!
Frequently asked questions
What exactly is a session?
