Thats super cool that you specialize in GIS. One of my first real jobs in tech, I was hired to build a social media platform for building communities around businesses. One of the main features was to have businesses be searchable by location. I used Postgres with PostGIS to store my data which I got from the google maps api for the address of the business doing reverse lookup. Used that to create a query that returned all locations from our system within a given distance radius and pinned those to an interactive Google Map. Considering that I was solo and very much a junior dev at that time I will always be proud of it.

Bro. Hussain, In the lately of '80s, We improved our skills depending on writing drafts along with purchasing cassette tapes, watching VHS or purchasing Books from overseas countries. but the most systematic part was exchanging skills and abilities with friends and experts locally. Unlike these days, Sharing knowledge and demonstrating skills become very easy now. however, and believe me, on this one, the most important part of these skills and talented people are hidden from us. they can not share their abilities and show them to the public, and they have their reasons, either they do not have time or because of terms of the confidentially related to their job in the company they working with. We all aware and deeply know technologies are growing and changing very fast as well as technology companies are racing and competing with each other. You're absolutely right Abu Ali, indeed and that's how things should go. شكرا لك اخي الكريم

Write a very simple “Situation -> Complication -> Solution” memo on a integration / scaling / your problem space of interest - challenge. That tells me already a lot as a CTO. Cherry on top if you have it on github with proof of concept runnable as dev container / Docker Compose / Kubernetes set-up. Don’t forget that what backend guys experience as “skill signaling issue” is 1:1 the same for the rest of the world. A business or strategy consultant can also not build an example business and point people to a website. Use these techniques as well and don’t get sucked into the flawed “push vecel” done trap. I want to see problem solving skills… not how to avoid them (99% of businesses are by definition brown field projects). My 2ct.

Excellent, as usual. Thanks! You made me smile at some point. It is, sometimes, hard to prove that you did "all that work" 😆 - depends how deep of a proof they want, and how good your memory is when it comes to odd details. I'll never count out plain weirdness. Hope no one will be so curious, even with all those nice comments I liked to plaster everywhere in my code, about the intricacies of notarizing something on macOS when I was doing it forced to disregard Apple's "way to do it"(TM) in an app that was using a custom runtime. It was like: "you're on your own, buster; here's some half-baked docs for your kind. Also, speaking of notarizing your weird JRE implementation-based app, here's access to an unoffficial support thread. Oh yeah, with some of our own engineers that are well-meaning but sometimes dumbfounded themselves...because you are a beta tester for a service we enforce. That, btw, goes down randomly and this will block your releases for days." We were integrating some 3rd party web rendering component in the application and rarely have I felt as proud as when one of their guys asked me: "Can I publish on our internal Wiki what you sent me? We've had three engineers toiling at this for two weeks and they still haven't cracked it." But the whole ecosystem in there? Long lost somewhere in the desert part of my mind. When I left the company, I wrote "a book" on the subject, indeed, and had quite a few recorded seminars on the whole release topic.

Better try solving your own problems first by making something and you’ll have a project that at least you can use for yourself. That way you’ll even work harder to make it more useful. Even a generic project idea can be done in a much better way if you can think of a much better system design for it.
