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:
- Job search + getting the interview
- Interviews, both for interviewers and interviewees
- Building experience, resume
- Learning technologies
- Negotiating promotions and compensation
- 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!

FAQ
What's your background?
I'm a full time software engineer for a Series B San Francisco startup, though I'm currently a digital nomad. I've worked for 3 banks/fintech firms, 3 fortune 100s, the state of Maryland, pro bono work with the Barbados government, and successfully hacked Microsoft as part of white hat work.
How do I schedule a time?
After you place an order, you will receive a link to my calendar where you can schedule a time. If no available times work, I can try to work with your availability.
How are the sessions conducted?
The coaching session will be on either google meet/hangouts.
Why is the delivery window so long?
The delivery window is long because this requires a digital face to face conversation. It can/will happen on whatever schedule works for both of us. If you want to set a meeting for within the next 24 hours, there is an express option for each package.
Do you do mock interviews?
Yes! Check out my mock interview gig! https://www.fiverr.com/microsoftly/mock-coding-interview-as-a-silicon-valley-software-engineer
Why is your service so expensive?
I'm looking to decrease order volume because I'm starting a new job at a seed stage fintech startup. Please contact me if you'd like to place an order.

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!
