Like many other people my age, my interest in computers was kick-started through video games. My first real taste of the development side of them came through The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind, which came with a construction set that you could use to change the whole game however you wanted to. This level of customisability absolutely blew my mind, and I haven\u2019t been able to shake the fascination since.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 bdrOUr body-paragraph\">I knew all through secondary school that I wanted to study computer science in college and go into software development from there. I didn\u2019t really do any serious coding before college, but I did a tonne of hobby projects with computers and other electronics. While they didn\u2019t give me a head start in coding itself, they gave me a good understanding of how computers and networks work in general.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 bdrOUr body-paragraph\">They also gave me a number of electric shocks but, as far as I can tell, those haven\u2019t had an impact on me either way.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"heading__StyledHeading-r87mu4-0 gQYrvT\">Why did you choose to work with Tines?<\/h4>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 bdrOUr body-paragraph\">I\u2019ve always preferred working in startups over larger companies, so when I was last looking for a new role, I was already quite curious about Tines based on their recent Series A round. The fact that the company was founded and based in Ireland attracted me, too \u2013 in my experience, this is often the difference between doing impactful core product work and providing support for products built elsewhere.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 bdrOUr body-paragraph\">I met Eoin Hinchy, our chief executive, for a chat in the old Tines office in Rathmines, and he gave me a tour of the product. Two things struck me straight away: that the product was incredibly powerful, and that Eoin really knew what he was talking about. All the other team members I talked to seemed just as sharp and as sound as he did, so I knew straight away that I wanted to join.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 bdrOUr body-paragraph\">That was when there were seven people in the company. Now there are over 120, and I\u2019m delighted that the standards of sharpness and soundness haven\u2019t dropped one bit \u2013 the whole team really is world-class.<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cpm.convergeselect.net\/user-sync?zone=129633&amp;t=image&amp;gdpr=1&amp;gdpr_consent=CPWak9sPWak9sAKAnAENCICsAP_AAH_AABAgIqNd_X__bX9j-_5_f_t0eY1P9_r3_-QzjhfNt-8F3L_W_L0X42E7NF36pq4KuR4Eu3LBIQNlHMHUTUmwaokVrzHsak2cpyNKJ7LEmnMZO2dYGHtPn9lDuYKY7_5___bz3j-v_t_-39T378Xf3_d5_2---vCfV599jLv9f___39nP___9v-_8_______BFMAkw1LyALsyxwZNo0qhRAjCsJCqBQAUUAwtEVgA4OCnZWAT6ghYAIBUhGBECDEFGDAIABBIAkIiAkALBAIgCIBAACABEAhAARMAgsALAwCAAUA0LEAKAAQJCDI4IjlMCAqRKKCWysQSgr2NMIAyzwIoFEZFQAIkmgBYGQkLBzHAEgJeLJA0xQvkAIwAAAAA.f_gAAAAAAAAA\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"heading__StyledHeading-r87mu4-0 gQYrvT\">What are you working on at present?<\/h4>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 bdrOUr body-paragraph\">I manage the Platform team in our engineering department, so a lot of my time is spent supporting the team on the projects they\u2019re working on. Currently, those are focused on evolving our cloud architecture to help us scale to our increasing customer count and improving developer tooling to help our other teams build the product faster and with less effort.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 bdrOUr body-paragraph\">Beyond those projects, I also do a lot of work on our recruiting efforts, coordinate a lot with other teams. And, of course, there\u2019s still the odd bit of coding in there.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"heading__StyledHeading-r87mu4-0 gQYrvT\">What is the best part of your job?<\/h4>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 bdrOUr body-paragraph\">I think the job of an engineering manager ultimately boils down to building the best team you can and creating the most supportive environment and culture that you can for your team to work in. The best part of the job is when you\u2019re able to do that in some small way \u2013 taking something that always bothered you as an engineer and saying: \u201cWe\u2019re going to do better than that.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"article-body-image-container article-body-image-container--mobile-left-float\"><picture class=\"Image__StyledPicture-sc-8yioqf-0 dRTDJJ\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/irishtimes-irishtimes-prod.cdn.arcpublishing.com\/resizer\/OC5JL9H7Y8Xa8JorqaLL_Zd2Sh0=\/768x0\/filters:format(jpg):quality(70)\/cloudfront-eu-central-1.images.arcpublishing.com\/irishtimes\/IWE6MAVQGLCX42Q4UDIPZU3H7Y.jpg\" media=\"screen and (min-width: 992px)\" \/><source srcset=\"https:\/\/irishtimes-irishtimes-prod.cdn.arcpublishing.com\/resizer\/u42bWeBDUT7QVsJLE_YyKBCarzk=\/400x0\/filters:format(jpg):quality(70)\/cloudfront-eu-central-1.images.arcpublishing.com\/irishtimes\/IWE6MAVQGLCX42Q4UDIPZU3H7Y.jpg\" media=\"screen and (min-width: 768px)\" \/><source srcset=\"https:\/\/irishtimes-irishtimes-prod.cdn.arcpublishing.com\/resizer\/jzyQw83uhCaQqEIQYdrSolUNwcU=\/274x0\/filters:format(jpg):quality(70)\/cloudfront-eu-central-1.images.arcpublishing.com\/irishtimes\/IWE6MAVQGLCX42Q4UDIPZU3H7Y.jpg\" media=\"screen and (min-width: 0px)\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/irishtimes-irishtimes-prod.cdn.arcpublishing.com\/resizer\/OC5JL9H7Y8Xa8JorqaLL_Zd2Sh0=\/768x0\/filters:format(jpg):quality(70)\/cloudfront-eu-central-1.images.arcpublishing.com\/irishtimes\/IWE6MAVQGLCX42Q4UDIPZU3H7Y.jpg\" width=\"174\" height=\"262\" \/><\/picture><figcaption>\n<p class=\"ImageMetadata__MetadataParagraph-sc-1gn0vty-0 lffXKC image-metadata\">\u2018This kind of work can feel like a big responsibility at times, but it\u2019s worth it for those moments when you know you\u2019ve made a difference\u2019<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 bdrOUr body-paragraph\">A good example of this is the work we\u2019ve done around diversity and inclusion. It\u2019s often a complex and difficult topic, and deciding on the right approach to improving it can be unnerving. That being said, it\u2019s an important part of our company, and I\u2019m proud of the steps we\u2019ve taken so far. For one, we recently replaced our in-house coding test that we used when hiring software engineers with ByteBoard to make the candidate experience smoother, quicker, more enjoyable and also more inclusive.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 bdrOUr body-paragraph\">This kind of work can feel like a big responsibility at times, but it\u2019s worth it for those moments when you know you\u2019ve made a difference.<\/p>\n<p class=\"interstitial-link block-margin-bottom\">\u00a0<a class=\"default__StyledLink-sc-1nhbny4-1 bMayzM\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tines.com\/careers\/\" aria-label=\"Open related story\">[For more information on Tines careers in Dublin, and to apply to positions, visit our careers site<\/a>]<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"heading__StyledHeading-r87mu4-0 gQYrvT\">Where do you see your industry five years from now?<\/h4>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 bdrOUr body-paragraph\">I really see the automation space growing massively in two directions. On the one hand, you\u2019ll have the people who are already using tools like Tines growing more familiar with those tools and building more advanced workflows, naturally using the features we have planned to support that more advanced work.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 bdrOUr body-paragraph\">On the other hand, you have the people who aren\u2019t using automation tools like that because the tools still require too much technical knowledge. This is an area that we have a tonne of ideas around, and I think five years from now, Tines will be even more approachable than tools like Microsoft Excel are today.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"heading__StyledHeading-r87mu4-0 gQYrvT\">What would you advise someone thinking about interviewing for this position?<\/h4>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 bdrOUr body-paragraph\">Don\u2019t spend time practising the stereotypical LeetCode-style coding questions \u2013 our interview process is much more based on the kind of work we actually do on our team. Instead, spend time thinking about the most impactful projects you worked on and the most valuable contributions you\u2019ve made in your work. Those real-world examples are of much more interest to us.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 bdrOUr body-paragraph\">Ask lots and lots of questions \u2013 being curious is key! Finding the right software role can be as much about finding a company that fits you, aligns with your goals and also your career ambitions. There are lots of different, subjective approaches to this work, and asking the right questions in an interview can save you spending months in a job that you don\u2019t enjoy.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"heading__StyledHeading-r87mu4-0 gQYrvT\">What are the key skills and capabilities necessary to be good at what you do?<\/h4>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 bdrOUr body-paragraph\">I believe the No 1 skill in software engineering is being able to learn new things. Innovation and iteration are in the very nature of the field, and there will never be a point in your career where you can stop learning and keep being successful. For me, though, that\u2019s probably the most exciting and satisfying part of the work: every day involves something new that you\u2019ve never seen before. It may be fast-paced sometimes, but at least it\u2019s never boring.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"heading__StyledHeading-r87mu4-0 gQYrvT\">What is the best career lesson you\u2019ve learned so far?<\/h4>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 bdrOUr body-paragraph\">Over the last few years I\u2019ve become more and more appreciative of the importance of non-technical skills and business awareness. There are so many software engineers out there who are experts at coding and developing systems, but they never think about what they\u2019re doing in the context of the business. Being aware of how the company makes money, why customers buy the product, and what the other teams in the company do can have a much bigger impact on your effectiveness than understanding fine-grained technical details.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"heading__StyledHeading-r87mu4-0 gQYrvT\">Which industry professionals should people be following on Twitter\/ LinkedIn?<\/h4>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 bdrOUr body-paragraph\">There are two people \u00a0I\u2019ve learned a lot about two different areas from: Charity Majors, co-founder and CTO of Honeycomb; and Jennifer Kim, startup advisor and former head of people at Lever.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 bdrOUr body-paragraph\">Charity Majors has been a great source of wisdom on the technical side \u2013 we\u2019re very aligned with a lot of the philosophies she talks about, and we\u2019re also big Honeycomb fans. Jennifer Kim provides a wealth of knowledge on how to hire a diverse team effectively and how to build an inclusive culture to ensure those new hires can flourish.<\/p>\n<p class=\"interstitial-link block-margin-bottom\">[\u00a0<a class=\"default__StyledLink-sc-1nhbny4-1 bMayzM\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tines.com\/\" aria-label=\"Open related story\">Tines.com<\/a>\u00a0]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This article is sponsored by Tines as part of the \u201810 Minutes With\u2026\u2019 series. &nbsp; How did you get started in software engineering?
