Join the free waitlist for Rithim here: www.rithim.aiAfter 10 years in tech, working as both an engineer and in tech sales, I’ve seen firsthand how dramatically this industry has changed and where it’s actually headed next. In this video, I break down the 10 hardest lessons I wish I understood earlier, including why tech careers are exponential, how AI is reshaping work, why your manager matters more than your logo early on, when job hopping helps or hurts, and why so many people quit right before their career really takes off. If you’re considering a tech career, already in one, or thinking long-term about income, optionality, and eventually building something of your own, this is the long-game perspective most people never hear.
