Software Developer's Journey
#71 Irwin Williams found his perfect spot
Irwin first spoke about his studies and how he volunteered to write code everyday. He went over the ups and downs and told us how he joined Teleios. We discussed his bumpy start. He spoke about how he learned from his own failures, how this became part of the company culture and a praised example for newcomers. We discussed his move toward Engineering Management and mentorship. And we finally spoke about learning and passion for your work.
Irwin has been a professional software developer for more than 16 years. He’s currently the Chief Software Engineer at Teleios Systems in Trinidad & Tobago. Irwin is also a member of the Global Communications and Technology Team of Congress WBN, where he provides insights in software architecture and development support on a diverse set of human-development initiatives. Irwin and his wife have two beautiful daughters who teach him every day that the journey is best, when it is shared! And that's why I am very pleased to welcome you to share your story on the DevJourney podcast!
