&lt;p&gt;I love working for
. We&amp;rsquo;re patching old, unsupported OSS with CVE fixes so that you &amp;ldquo;pass the audit&amp;rdquo;. It&amp;rsquo;s as simple as that. I joined
last year in September and I felt that I&amp;rsquo;m in a right place at the right time.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The company supported me in many areas - I could contribute to OSS, I could do some side projects. One of those projects was reppie.ai a reputation management application.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;One day I had an email sent to me by
, the CEO of
. I wasn&amp;rsquo;t aware of their existance, never heard of them before. He wanted to meet with me and talk. I checked what the company does and it turned out that they also do reputation management! It was my chance to sell reppie.ai!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So we met and it turned out that they don&amp;rsquo;t want to buy reppie.ai, but they want me to become their CTO! I was speachless!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I was really surprised and asked him how on earth he found me?
you can check how that process looked from his side.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After thorough analysis I decided to take this opportunity - how often can one become a CTO?!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So it&amp;rsquo;s official, starting from June I&amp;rsquo;ll be a full time CTO at
!!!&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
