    S2E11: BONUS EPISODE: Daniel Vassallo -- Tech Success at Amazon Leads to Pursuit of Small Bets

    To cap off Season 2, Jon and I spoke to what many might consider a tech success story.  Daniel Vassallo is no stranger to tech Twitter, but in case he is a new name to you, Daniel is a former Amazon Software Engineer who now makes a living with a portfolio of small bets.   He made his way to Seattle by way of Ireland, working for 7 years at Amazon before leaving the corporate world for the freedom of self-employment.  I (Melissa) love Daniel's story, largely because I long to replicate his portfolio of small bets approach to work.  This was a wonderful conversation. I appreciate Daniel's transparency and authenticity.  Have a listen to hear: Daniel's path into amazon Correspondence college, long before remote schooling was a thing The interview process Navigating coding challenges over the phone -- these were pre-Zoom/Skype/Facetime days! Moving from Ireland to Seattle How his role and job scope changed over time Salary numbers over time The process of self-reflection through his time at Amazon Leaving amazon to pursue a portfolio of small bets Whether your goal is to work in tech for 30 years, or grind for 5 with an eye on early retirement, Daniel is worth a follow.  The best place to connect is on Twitter
