Over the past 6 months or more, I’ve been thinking about where I’m headed, what I’m doing, and what I’d like to be doing. This is mainly career related, I guess. Comes from being in your thirties, maybe? Anyway, I looked back over the 5 odd years I’ve been with Gentoo, and I realised that what I enjoyed most about being with Gentoo was the developer relations stuff. Not the firing and all that crap, no. The stuff about building relationships. The stuff that involved scoping out new people and engaging them on different development issues. The stuff that essentially defines who I am, really. That is to say, the stuff that is my personality anyway.
And so I decided that that is where I must go. So I started reading through the more interesting and pertinent entries on reddit and of course, Guy Kawasaki’s blog amongst other things. Guy had a great post about evangelism in which he mentioned simplyhired, the vertical search engine. I tried it out and sure enough, there were/are more tech links than religious links.
Anyway, all that led me to find this one opportunity that is located right in town. It was perfect. They wanted an evangelist, and a Developer Relations Manager. How perfect is that? They may as well have advertised, “We’re looking for a Seemant Kulleen to do what he does.” Lemme tell you, I hopped to that opportunity.
Tomorrow: the conclusion. maybe.
