Welcome back, listeners. Today we are continuing our series entitled The New Notification Stag for Developers,

Well, today I have a special guest on the Code Story podcast, Maria Irizari.

She is a technical lead manager at Currier, has spent many, many years in software spending time at Level, Google, and Cisco.

Maria, thank you for being on the show today.

Of course, I'm super happy to be here.

Before we jump into our topic for today, tell me in my audience a little bit more about you.

Well, this is my first time being on a podcast.

So definitely super excited.

I have quite a bit of years under my belt in the software engineering industry.

I've had a chance to work on consumer-facing products for a while now, at least like six, seven years. And I'm super passionate

about it. As a developer, you know, I've had my own fair share of journeys with notifications

and kind of honestly the pain that it was to to build them a little bit more about that.

Like I worked at Google, worked at Google Home, we're building out notifications for the home app there.

It kind of just feels like full circle now.

I'm here at Courier.

I've been a career for eight months now.

And it feels like the time is blown by.

And I'm super excited to be stepping into not only the consumer-facing product, but the developer persona.
