What's your job? (lemmy.world)

I'm asking out of curiosity mostly.

Is anyone here into digital marketing? That's what I'm studying for right now.

I do water maintenance. Flowing hydrants, turning water valves, leak detection etc. I keep the water in city pipes doing it's job.

That sounds pretty cool. If you're a fan of being an unsung hero, this seems like a good point. And with that being said, thanks for keeping your city's hydrants in tip-top shape.

So how did you get started? Does it work well for you?

I work for a private company so I work in a lot of different cities. But I started off with utility locating and found my way here from getting to know people.

Programming. What made you choose digital marketing?

[-] TehBamski@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Thanks for asking.

My strengths lay in a love of knowledge, analytics, and my inquisitive mind. I love to see how things are connected to one another and how the system(s) is laid out. I'm often a big picture kinda guy. And have a desire to help others out when I can. Something I learned about myself about a decade ago, was that I can genuinely feel excited for others when they do well. Which is kind of a hack when you're diagnosed with depression, and perhaps for my anxiety.

Digital marketing checks off all of those things. There is always something to be learned or improved, Google's search ranking criteria are changed a few times a year, so there seems to never be a dull moment in the field. And just like IT or programming, being specialized in a few things is great. So I'm looking to become an expert in SEO, Local SEO, keyword/phrase ranking, and backlink generation.

The selfish part is that I realized that nearly all of the digital marketing things were things that I would benefit from knowing since I desire to start my company sometime soon. It also benefits my plan to be able to make a few hundred dollars a month through online sales of items.

Packaging engineer! Foam is fun!

I always wondered how many packaging engineers were out there in the world. Haha.

Have you heard much about mycelium packaging and or plastics before?

I've been wondering when more common products are going to start to be shipped in such a thing, instead of one use plastics and packaging.

[-] tinylightshow@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 11 months ago

I actually have some! But I haven't gotten to make anything with it yet, or see how well it performs.

Software/Staff Engineer, as Architect and Solver. So I help design our system (from the technical side), I assist and to a degree coordinate teams, I jump in when know how or man power is needed, I rework or rebuild systems that have no clear ownership of a team, and so on. Oh and I always have an opinion no matter which (technical) topic.

I'm working part-time as a Software Engineer and I'm doing a Master's degree in Software Engineering at the same time. 😵‍💫
