This is Code Story.

A podcast bringing you interviews with tech visionaries.

Six months moonlighting.

There's nothing on the backhand. Who share what it takes to change in industry. I don't exactly know what to do next. It took many goes to get right. Who built the teams that have their back. A company is its people. The teams help each other achieve more. Most proud of our team. Keeping scalability top of mind. All that infrastructure was a pain. Yes, we've been fighting it as we grow.

Dry the ups and downs of the startup life. You need to really want it.

It's not just about technology.

All this and more on Code Story.
