Station Wagon Full of Tapes

Welcome to “Station Wagon Full of Tapes” by me, Goksu Toprak.

^ What a wonderfully auto-generated text. Super warm and welcoming, which is very valuable when it comes to getting more eyes on a newsletter.

I’ve recently crossed a proper 7 year mark on my career as a Software Engineer. Worked for two startups that was building software for totally different set of customers. Now I spend my quarantine weekdays working for a public company that enables me to write APIs that are exposed to multi-millions of requests — daily.

I am hoping to jot my thoughts (semi-periodically) about building “scalable” software, instrumentation & observability, growth engineering, frameworks, technical interviews, naming conventions that drive me nuts, and of course the industry in general.
