About this Session
If you're looking for a mentor, and you're just not sure about how this all works – this one is for you. In a casual, informal introductory call, a mentor will introduce themselves, show you around the platform, explain how our mentorships work, and explain how they would set up a mentorship with you.
This session is perfect if you're looking for a long-term mentor, but you're just not sure how this can work – or if you already set eyes on a specific mentor, and want to get to know them beforehand.
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!
