From building computers at home when he was a kid, to joining the military as a Russian interpreter, to VP of Engineering at a FinTech company, Norm has pretty much seen it all — that’s why I loved working with him.
Norm has pretty much always been self-taught & learned everything the hard way. This makes him really good at teaching others & mentoring up and coming developers.
We break bread today & talk about building teams offshore, rising through the engineering ranks, how AI will effect software development and much more.
