I am contacting you in regard to the Software Engineer position. I am excited by the work you are
doing and would love to discuss the opportunity of being 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 a passion and natural affinity for writing code and have high standards
for quality, which often led to taking on a `lead-by-example' role in the teams I have worked in.

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 skill set that includes knowledge of many
languages and a strong understanding of subdomains such as DevOps and Unix systems. I hope this,
along with my passion and proficiency for engineering and writing efficient and correct code, could
provide unique qualifications for this opportunity and look forward to discussing it further.
