Homapod

In the first episode of Homapod by Homalabs, I sit down with Winner, principal data & AI engineer at Microsoft, who went from intern to principal engineer in five years.

We talk about what was on his CV (nothing, actually), getting into Microsoft through his community, the call he got on the day of his last exam, getting promoted every year, why "you own your career", how impact equals money, and the interview research habit he says "feels illegal".

If you're job hunting, early in your tech career, or trying to grow where you are, this one is for you.
