First step to become a software engineer
M

A simple back end developer looking to improve his career.

Ok, Maybe I had started the wrong way because I never was a good writer, but... Someone said to me: " Every goal has to start somewhere" ... this is my start.

A second reason is... I was browsing the web and I read: "Every programmer has a blog", if it's on the internet it's true!

A few minutes ago I was talking with a friend about my career and long terms goals, I Said to him that I decide to become a software engineer. We're both over 30, so going to college, and studying programming logic, isn't going to work for us.

For me now I decide to start my studies with Python and in 2 or 3 years, mastering this language, I will apply for a home office position in a large and super important technology corporation. Make the video "Day in the life of a software engineer in some big company"...

This is my plan, my goals, is it working? I DON'T KNOW

The first step was!

I will post on this blog 1 day a week, preferably Sunday,

if you want to support me in my studies, type a positive comment below, I will appreciate it!

Thanks!

PS.: I'm improving my grammar too, so if you notice some grammatical errors... I'm sorry, with time the idea is to get better! =D

Hi Matthew, now my current job is senior IT in the hotel industry, but I'm also working like a PM (Product Manager) an OTA startup, we started building an APP with ReactJS on the frontend and Java+Spring on the backend. I've never worked with these programming languages ​​so it will be a great experience for my journey!

In my next post I will introduce myself, I should've done it in my first post but I forgot!

I'm proud of your courage to just go and see what it's in deep. And it's pretty inspirational for me and certainly, I'll hold on to it to grow my career too.

Wish you well.

I'm in the same boat . I been learning Java for 2 two 3 years . I should start blogging once a week also . I thought It was funny wht u said about ur gramer I also have trouble with . I'm over 30 myself and I also had good influence in my whole career as a software engineer so I can definitely relate to wht ur going thru. Hang in there bud were going to do our best in baby steps "1stepatatime" and soon we will be walking out that door, throughing our grad hats in the air and with hard work and dedication with determination is to not to give up on our dreams that we value so dearly . God bless my man . Stop on by !! check my page out ,u might learn something that ur interested in . I know I did reading urs . Ight take care thanx for sharing ur inspiration . Call me 7575257613 when u need a hand . I'll be there. Thank you .
