What Motivates Me In Software Engineering?

Software engineering allows me to do meaningful work that aligns with my values. I can contribute to the greater good.

Software engineering means building software in a structured way: plan the layout, use the right materials, and make sure it's safe and functional.

There's room to innovate and think outside the box. Building software that improves lives or simplifies processes is rewarding.

The technology field is moving fast, so there's always something new to learn. This growth keeps things interesting.

What's UI Engineer?

I mostly work in the Frontend Ecosystem, whether it's web applications, or mobile applications. Though I'm mostly into the web ecosystem, especially React .

I use React because (so far) to me, it's one of the tool that makes sense to build functional user interfaces. It's just a simple JavaScript function that returns HTML (JSX) and then renders it on the page.

Let's back to the question: What's UI Engineer?

UI Engineer, a person who designs websites and applications with the end-user in mind.

To sum it up, it's a job where you develop and maintain cross-platform apps based on user-centered design. And as an engineer, I should be able to think and act like a real user.

In short; here's how it works: I am going to demand a nice piece of user interface, excellent user experience, smooth transition, and so on.

because here's what they might think: "while using your product, you should serve me well, and if you did not served me well, I'm just gonna buy it from another place".

What's My Side Quest?

I progressively learn new things and keep myself up to date with the latest trends in technology. While keeping myself sane with black coffee.

Apart from my main job, I like to travel in search of nature, ride my motorbike, talk to my cats, and sometimes read philosophical books.
