This episode features Jeff Bloom (1988, Computer Science graduate). Jeff shares his experiences working with NASA's mission control as a software engineer, especially the challenge of transitioning from coding to managing application configurations and supporting flight control teams. He emphasizes the importance of clear communication and the crucial value of documenting all the details of your work along the way. Don’t wait until the last minute to start producing documentation—start on any writing pieces as soon as you can alongside your engineering work and other design projects. Keeping a "work journal" can help make the documentation and writing process easier. Jeff also advises current students to get involved with as many out-of-class activities as you can make time for.
