I started my career as an AI consultant, and if you're wondering what an AI consultant does, it's not what you imagine.
I thought I would work on the next Jarvis, or a robotic military armour, and flying cars. But the reality was... I was spending my days on Powerpoints and Spreadsheets; and after a few months, I realized I had lost that spark that made me love engineering in the first place.
On the one hand, I had comfort, prestige, and access to people I could never otherwise meet. On the other, my soul was crying for engineering challenges.
I decided to change career and learn more technical self-driving car skills.
I took courses, learned from Medium, YouTube, papers, podcasts, and everywhere you can think of to reach a goal: become a self-driving car engineer..
It was 2017, a period we could call the "Golden Age" of Self-Driving Cars, and from my consulting tower, I was preparing my escape plan to the cutting-edge world...
To transition from consulting to self-driving cars, I have spent an entire year learning python, AI, machine learning, computer vision, and other self-driving car algorithms. I executed a portfolio strategy, building dozens of projects, writing tons of articles, and creating a brand linking me and self-driving cars...

I believe we engineers can't afford to spend time on projects that don't make an impact. You should work on projects that make you feel alive, stimulated, excited, challenged.
My experience in consulting taught me many great things, but also showed me that this path leads to you not being in control of what you work on. An engineer once said "Yes" to a minor data migration project that wasn't related to his ambitions in AI. 2 years later, he responded to one of my newsletters saying "I just spent 2 years stuck on a data migration project that kept being renewed... ENOUGH!"
After nearly 4 years, over 1,700 Emails sent to 10,000+ engineers, and 25 online courses built on cutting-edge topics, Me and Think Autonomous can help you become a cutting-edge engineer, what we call... an "Edgeneer."
