Yesterday was my last day at Google. It is not bittersweet, but a purely bitter moment. I had no plans of leaving, but I had no choice left. I had to leave because of a conflict with my outside work (courses and YouTube), and once legal gets involved, there is not much you can do. I am bummed about leaving a domain that I dearly love - in-memory databases. I am bummed because I was working with some exceptionally good engineers and genuinely good people. I am bummed because there was so much good stuff left to build. I will forever be grateful to Google for giving me two stints. Both were extremely fulfilling and something that made me a better engineer and operator. Rooting for Memorystore! This team would take a bullet for each other! Excited to focus my energy on what comes next.
