Ivan Aimufua — From trades to professional developer in 1 year

Work In Programming

This week I caught up with an old friend, Ivan Aimufua. We talked about why he left his job as a plumber to find his passion, and found himself gorging on everything he could find related to code. Over the course of the next year, he taught himself a mixture of Python, Javascript, and more to eventually find himself in his dream job at Punchcard Systems, where he works today, partnering with entrepreneurs to build out software products from idea to completion. In this conversation, we covered: How to learn effectively. The skills that developers need to master AFTER they learn to code and get the job. The challenges involved in working with clients. How to balance work and life while working remotely. And more! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/work-in-programming/message
