Lately, I've realized that I've been working in the AWS space for nearly 10 years.
Everything began with this eye-opening moment at an AWSomeDay in Paris (Feb. 24, 2017). I was doing traditional System Engineering at that time, ordering and racking servers, dealing with networking cables, switches, and routers.
Since then, I’ve been working in AWS Infrastructure and Security. Fell in love with it.
I don't know (yet) what the next eye-opening moment would be.
Today, I was listening to the Lex Fridman podcast with Jeff Kaplan, and this quote from David Bowie resonates with me a lot:
"If you feel safe in the area that you're working in, you're not working in the right area. Always go a little further in the water than you feel you're capable of being in.
Go a little bit out of your depth. And when you don't feel that your feet are quite touching the bottom, you're just about in the right place to do something exciting."
