Welcome to my Social Blog

Her drive to grow made her jump career paths twice in one company, and that became a pilot program for discovering new female engineers.

Julia Miller (@coding_hexe) is now a Software Engineer on the orchestration platform for Machine Learning workflows at @Zalando in Berlin.

At first, she joined Zalando as a working student and then went full time after her graduation in business mathematics.

Julia started out as an analyst, shifted to product manager, and finally decided to go all developer by attending an @Ironhack bootcamp over sabbatical.

In our chat, we talk about joining the right company, finding the right teams, natural networking, listening for mentors, product engineers, and leaning into joy.
