How long have you worked at Push?

It’s been more that a year that I have worked at Push. Before working at Push, I was studying as a Master of Science at the University of Saskatchewan.

Why did you become a developer?

Surprisingly I used to hate programing! It was an absolute nightmare for me to write a couple of lines of code in QBasic for my high school assignment. On the contrary, I was interested in graphics design and animations that are usually used in front-ends! When I finished high school, I started my Bachelor of Science in software engineering and this was the fist time that I experienced the pleasant feeling of a complete application of my own in C++ language. During four years of my Bachelor study, I was introduced to different programing languages and technologies. My interest to programing and graphic design motivated me to write a book with my friend about designing web-based multimedia using Microsoft .Net technologies.

Follow my interest in programing, I started my first job in my hometown, Tehran, and after one year I established my own company with 6 employees. Working in industry proved to me that I still need to learn a lot and my journey should not end at this point. Hence, I decided to continue my Master studies in Computer Science in Canada. During my studies in University of Saskatchewan about Human-Computer Interactions, I was introduced to new fields of computer science such as smartphone programing, sensor fusion software and interface design for small screen devices. After all, I decided to be a developer as my career, because implementing different applications and interfaces lets me feel that I am re-defining the connection between human and computer. It feels unbelievably great when you sketch up your interface, implement it fro scratch and see how people react to your application. It is art!

What is your favourite thing about working at Push?

Push is a wonderful place to work, not only because you are working on what you like the most, but also you are working with amazing people who are absolute experts, who are kind and friendly. When I started my work at Push, I was an intern student at my third year of studies. Throughout the past year I have earned a lot of experience here and found cool friends that don’t hesitate to share their experience with you when you need them.
