+I am contacting you in regard to the Divvi Up software engineering position. I put considerable
+importance on privacy and security both in my personal life, as well as in the industry. I believe
+in the work Divvi Up (and ISRG at large) is doing, and would love to discuss the opportunity to be
+a part of it.
+
+As a generational engineer, I have been engaged in engineering the majority of my life, both as a
+hobby, as well as professionally. While I have tangible experience in both mechanical and
+electrical engineering, I have found software engineering to be an excellent conduit for my love of
+finding elegant solutions to complex problems. I have high standards for quality solutions that
+focus on simplicity, efficiency, and correctness. While I have an affinity for Rust, I have
+experience with many other languages such as C, Python, and C\#.
+
+I love to explore and learn about new things and a majority of my free time is spend doing so.
+Through my hobbies, I have developed a diverse knowledge base and wide skill set, including a
+strong understanding of DevOps, containerization, and IoT, to name a few. I believe this, along
+with my proficiency for engineering, understanding of Rust, and passion for producing reliable and
+maintainable code, could provide unique qualifications for this opportunity, and I look forward to
+discussing it further.
