Celeste's Story My initial interest in coding stemmed from informal discussions with the DevOps team at my fintech company. These conversations, often taking place during breaks, provided valuable insights into the practical applications and problem-solving aspects of software development within the financial technology sector. Observing firsthand how code translates into tangible solutions within our business context sparked a curiosity and excitement that ultimately motivated me to explore coding further. The dynamic nature of the challenges faced by the DevOps team, coupled with the creative approach they employed to overcome them, proved particularly compelling and solidified my desire to learn more about the field.
