I work in the industry too. I'm always curious about what other's in this industry do when they're on HN, so if you're able can you share what you do?
As far as me: I'm the lead engineer for the mobile and api products at one of the major software providers for independent waste haulers in the US. My family owns and operates a hauling operation in CA, so I've spent my entire life surrounded by the inner workings of solid waste collection, hauling, and processing.
- devops_monkey 7y agoI'm an software engineer as well. I work for one of the top 3 waste management companies. I've worked on both consumer side web/mobile apps as well as operations side projects, both in hauling and MRF operations.
- jeddawson 7y agoThanks for sharing! If you go to Waste Expo (not sure if the big 3 send software engineers), it'd be cool to grab a beer and connect.
- devops_monkey 7y agoIT doesn't get to attend Waste Expo, but we can go to WasteCon in Phoenix this year.
- jeddawson 7y agoOh interesting, we generally don't go to WasteCon due to how focused it is on public sector since we have a better product fit with independent haulers (we do have several municipalities using our software though). Maybe we should be going though - always good to expand our horizons. Feel free to shoot me an email at: my first name at edisoncode.com
