Hello! I'm Mansi, a Software Engineering Leader who has helped early-stage SaaS companies build impactful, user-focused software. Over the past decade, I've specialized in full-stack development (React, Typescript, and Ruby on Rails), technical leadership of features serving thousands of users, and building high-performing teams by scaling engineering teams by 3x through hiring and focus on career growth. I love sharing the magic of technology with others, whether it's through building great products or coaching the next generation of engineers.

In this talk, I'll be sharing my story as a career changer and how I've embraced being a #Learner4Lyfe to land my dream job. Don't let not knowing hold you back from pursuing your goals. Through my experience, I hope you too can learn how to become a skilled beginner, empower yourself through all of the mistakes, and celebrate even the small wins.
