Bert: Ohhh, good question. I would say that my background has taught me to be proactive when choosing a development topic, and to be deliberate when defining the scope and expectations for development to get the most out of it. We are always learning from what others have done and why, as well as examining what’s available in the market today and how it could be better. Then, we proactively choose our development topics based on the gaps we have found, gaps we believe need to be filled in ways that matter to the industry as a whole and the customers we serve.
Allie: My work experience prior to ARRIS centered on the design of hardware and processes to take systems from a lab setting to a factory floor. At ARRIS, we have tackled a very similar high-level challenge of repeating an application success under very specific conditions at scale. I love tackling those kinds of challenges. I’ve transferred my knowledge of complicated system problem-solving to the ARRIS material line to give the operators a more stable, easy-to-run, and scalable process, and learned a ton along the way.
