- How has factor10 changed the way you think about software?
I’ve learned to find meaningful solutions without defaulting to external tools. I now value software that is easy to understand, adapt, and replace more than I did earlier in my career.
- What’s something about factor10 culture that makes a real difference in your day-to-day?
The ability to be myself. I don’t have to fit a mold or pretend to be someone I’m not. The culture here values honesty and learning from mistakes rather than avoiding them. The trust and understanding create an environment where I can focus on what really matters.
- What’s a change you helped a client make that had a disproportionate impact?
An organization’s teams were blocked from shipping new software due to a persistent issue. I resolved it, enabling them to deploy again and to also upgrade their systems to a vendor-supported version to access critical support.
- What made you realize factor10 was the right place for you?
I’ve had the opportunity to work on exciting projects, learn from incredibly thoughtful and experienced colleagues, and grow in ways I hadn’t imagined. The trust and support I’ve received make a real difference - I feel valued, challenged, and encouraged every day.
- Who has a secret talent, and what is it?
Dino has an incredible eye for visual design!
