Goal: solutions architect

Thoughts

Goal: solutions architect
Principle: people first

Learning, practice, open source, networking
all orbit people
all orbit the end vision
How to provide better infra, engineering architecture, foundations
so the business can land better and faster

Lean hard into networking and reaching out
Get guidance from people who are smarter, more experienced, more lucid
Work with them
Solving survival and growth is inevitable
Latent opportunities and compounding will show up on their own

Don't build in a closed room
Talk to people and progress together
Tech serves the business
Business serves people

Start by reaching out to 100 GitHub repos
Help them maintain the community, fix bugs, do the dirty work
Prefer Chinese engineers first
The point is to meet people and enter the circle
not to be the core PR contributor
