About The Software Job

Welcome to The Software Job, a blog dedicated to helping software engineers succeed in their careers by providing valuable advice and insights.

Inspiration and Background

The idea for this blog was born from my time as a university professor. I found immense joy in mentoring my students and helping them navigate the complex world of software engineering. This passion for mentorship has stayed with me throughout my career, and now I aim to extend that guidance to a wider audience through this blog.

About Me

My name is Raul Perez and I’m currently a software engineering manager with more than 20 years of experience in the enterprise software development industry. For the past decade, I’ve been leading teams, not from an ivory tower, but from the trenches, working alongside them to develop robust software solutions. My love for modern technology and process improvement drives my continuous learning journey.

Mission

Through The Software Job, I hope to create useful material for software engineers at various stages of their careers. By sharing my experiences and research findings, I aim to engage and inspire readers to excel in their software careers.
