Dev Retro 2022: Journey in review
At the state of Ikigai ❤️
Introduction
Hey guys, I am Dhanush N, currently, a full-stack software engineer with 4+ years of experience mostly focused on backend development and DevOps. I am currently learning AWS and system design. I’ve had a lot of exposure to different technologies as a result of my work at a startup and have also learned many other things from my interests. So let’s have a review of how my 2022 went 🙂
My background
I was from a tier 3 college, and when I was in my 2nd year, I remember that there was the first coding contest in my college, which was used for shortlisting people for a placement aspect. I was an above-average academic student at the time, but when it came to coding, I was unable to solve the problem in a minimal time frame. I took Computer Science and Engineering, which was purely based on my interest, but competitive programming was something that challenged me. I love being challenged, From then on, I continued to improve my problem-solving abilities by completing numerous challenges on various platforms, and I grew steadily.
My Job
When I first got placed in a company, I worked in the service sector for a year and was then moved to the product sector. More than working in the service…
