I became a LINKer because the work is interesting and challenging. What motivates and inspires me is being part of a multinational company with a great culture and working with great people every day.
How have you grown professionally while working at LINK?
My initial position as a Software Engineer entailed working with the latest technologies such as .NET, JAVA, JavaScript or PHP world in the cloud. Fast forward a couple of years, and I was promoted to Tech lead. Helping to drive new technology forward and ensure systems were up and running.
In the past year, I have taken on a new challenge as Development Manager. A key aspect of my role is people and process management from a developer's perspective. This is a move into a less-technical and instead more people-focused role. It relies on great communication, teamwork, and teambuilding skills alongside ample developer knowledge. My background as a Software Engineer enabled me to pursue this new challenge with the necessary skills.
