In my career I worked with multiple industries: marine, mining, social, 3D print, advertisement, etc. and there was always new positive experience. So I don't care that much about the industry of the product. I'm probably most interested in biotech, healthtech, edtech but this list is not exhaustive by far.

Regardless of position I would like to continue to program, as it's something I do the best. I'm used to lead "by example".
