I am intrigued by the work being done at +FourKites 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 building +systems. 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 Go. + +I love to explore and learn about new things and a majority of my free time is spend doing so. +Through my hobbies and career, I have developed a diverse knowledge base and wide skill set, +including a strong understanding of DevOps, containerization, and Unix systems, to name a few. I +believe this, along with my proficiency for engineering, understanding of languages, and passion for +writing efficient and correct code, could provide unique qualifications for this opportunity, and I +look forward to discussing it further. + +\makeletterclosing{} + +\end{document} -- cgit v1.2.3-70-g09d2
