Dr. Meg Desko

This fall I’m supporting #techwomen23 by applying to be a professional mentor. If you’re near #SanFrancisco or #Chicago and interested in mentoring for TechWomen, apply here bit.ly/TWMentor2023 by July 13!

I cannot say enough good things about TechWomen. Looking forward to this year’s program!

My grandmom was influential in my life, and I'm honored to share a little bit of her story during this #WomensHistoryMonth interview with #SoftwareEngineering Director, Judith Dietz. Watch our chat now at bigeng.io/megdesko/. #WomenInStem #WomenInTech @BigEng

.@nekisha_m didn't take the traditional route for her #SoftwareEngineering career. Instead, she enlisted @TechtonicaOrg's help. See her story at bigeng.io/nekishamims/. #SoftwareEngineer #WomenInSTEM #WomenInTech

@jcowie @katie_hoesley @BigCommerce @BigCommerceDevs @BigEng Thanks @jcowie for thinking of our engineering team here @BigEng! My personal wish list: apps and storefronts being efficient with API calls, avoiding n+1 API calls, and fetching exactly the data needed and no more, when possible. GraphQL makes this easier 😀

@katie_hoesley @BigCommerce @BigCommerceDevs @BigEng Probably the bigy is what does engineering need from us as community to help.

if you could pick the brains of @BigCommerce 's devs, what would you ask about? 📣👾🔋🤠 @BigCommerceDevs @BigEng

One of my favorite parts of being at @BigEng is leading the @TechWomen program. Meet this spring's talented and inspiring emerging leaders now at bigeng.io/2022-techwomen/. #techwomen22 #WomenWhoCode #WomeninTech @BigCommerce

We'll be livestreaming here on May 12 at 4pm CT/2pm PT. Have questions❔about Multi-Storefront? Join us then!

@AmyChanta @BigCommerce I've been here for >7 years, and it feels like it's trending better. I'm a co-chair for BEmpowered, our women's ERG, and I'd be happy to facilitate an intro to our BCinColor leadership if it's of interest.

@AmyChanta @BigCommerce It's a fair question. BigCommerce is actively working to improve D&I at all levels, and we have folks dedicated to ensuring things move in the right direction.

Unexpectedly, my job search begins again, though with some highly endorsed engineers alongside me this time. Startup life is tumultuous, so while I didn't think I'd be writing this today, I can say I'm optimistic about what's next. First though, I want you to meet some folks: 🧵

I feel so inspired by our BProud, BCinColor, and BEmpowered #diversityinclusion speaker today. Thank you @MsIsisKing for sharing your story and learnings with us @BigCommerce! @BigEng

If you’re looking for a tech bootcamp for #women and #nonbinary folks, check out @TechtonicaOrg - deadline has been extended to April 18!

On Thursday, our @TechWomen Emerging Leaders met with @BigCommerce Chief People Officer Sherri Manning to learn about how the people at BC make it a great place to work. @BigEng #techwomen22
