\input{preamble} \recipient{HR Department}{CampLife} \date{\today} \opening{Dear Sir or Madam,} \closing{Thank you for your consideration,} \enclosure[Attached]{curriculum vit\ae{}} \begin{document} \makelettertitle{} I am contacting you in regard to the Developer II position. Growing up in the country, I have always loved the outdoors and have spent a decent amount of time in camp grounds. Currently, my parents spend part of the year as `nomads', traveling the country in a converted Van they built. I am intrigued by the work being done at CampLife 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 Java, Javascript, and Python. 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, passion for writing efficient and correct code and love for the outdoors, could provide unique qualifications for this opportunity, and I look forward to discussing it further. \makeletterclosing{} \end{document}
