Most career advice was written for a world that no longer exists. Let's talk about this one!

I'm Atiyeh - a software engineer and a career coach for people navigating one of the most uncertain moments in tech's history.

AI is reshaping roles, layoffs have hit even the strongest engineers, and the path forward feels anything but clear. Whether you're a new grad, a career pivoter, or a seasoned engineer caught in recent cuts - you're not behind. You're just at a crossroads.

My own path into tech was nonlinear, which is exactly why I coach practically, honestly, and without sugarcoating. I work on enterprise-scale systems at LinkedIn every day, so what I bring to our sessions isn't theory - it's what actually matters on the job and in the interview room.

Here's what we work on together:

--> Technical foundation - skills that are actually in demand, with real-world context
--> AI fluency - working with AI tools to amplify your value, not compete against them
--> Career strategy - resume, portfolio, and interview prep that turn your story into a strength
--> The human side - communication, confidence, and navigating real team dynamics

Whether you're breaking in, rebuilding, pivoting, or leveling up - the goal is clarity, momentum, and a plan that fits your life.

The future belongs to people who adapt and bring their whole perspective to the table. That might be exactly you. Let's find out together.
