In this episode, we are joined by Mersedes, aka @blkwomenread.  We talk about her journey from working at one of the countries busiest Dominos, to call center, to today. These days Mersedes works as a Systems Engineer/Monitoring Engineer which lines up very nicely with her strong interest in the field of Site Reliability Engineering (SRE). We dive into the nitty gritty about her transition from fast food worker to network engineer and learn about what her day-to-day looks like in her current role. This was a great roundtable discussion, suitable for anyone wondering about or currently working in the cloud!
