About this Gig


From working on Wall Street to Silicon Valley, I have the background you need to ensure you achieve your professional goals.


This gig is a 45-60 minute coaching call where we can talk about anything you want related to the software engineer career path from how to land your first job as software developer, aligning yourself to get a promotion to senior software engineer, to getting your software resume reviewed and improved. The most common topics I help with are:

  1. Job search + getting the interview
  2. Interviews, both for interviewers and interviewees
  3. Building experience, resume
  4. Learning technologies
  5. Negotiating promotions and compensation
  6. Being/transitioning to a productive digital nomad


That being said, this gig is structured to fit what you want and need. The theme is Software Engineering and you're the driver of the conversation. Anything under that umbrella is fair game. What I can guarantee is that you will receive personalized advice that no blog post could possibly capture.


If you're looking for Resume writing, I will pair with you and teach you how to write the resume that lands the job.


By working together, you will be able to achieve you career goals!

    Matt gave me advice that was very tailored on how to make my specific background (career transition + experience in non profit) legible in tech hiring. Highly recommend. The format is open-ended and you drive the conversation, so come in with a focused agenda and specific questions you need answered. If you do that, you'll get a lot out of it.

    Great analysis and attention to detail. He pointed out quite a few things I had missed in my resume that should have been obvious in hindsight. Whether it actually translates to job offers remains to be seen. Hoping for the best!
