#Hey there

I’m always open to a good chat over coffee. Before you reach out, please read these notes.

#About me

I’ve been a software engineer in San Francisco for about 10 years. I work on the Cloud Run team at Google Cloud. Before that, I worked on Firebase and SRE at Google, and at startups including Opendoor and The Climate Corporation.

I’m also a dad of two, so I guard my time outside work.

#What we can talk about

I like hearing people’s stories and talking about software. We don’t need an agenda. I can help most with:

• Finding a job in the US
• Preparing for interviews
• Working on a US engineering team
• Growing your career as a software engineer

#When and where

I only meet in person, in San Francisco. If you’re visiting, send me your dates ahead of time.

#Cost

I don’t charge for coffee chats. Instead, I ask you to donate any amount to UNICEF. It keeps us both committed, and the money does some good.

1. Go to UNICEF and click Donate.
2. Choose Give Once.
3. Enter any amount.
4. Click Keep my one-time $X gift.
5. Enter your details and payment info.

Then send me the receipt by message or email (ltae9110 at gmail.com).

See you soon!
