Become the Change You Seek!

My Sifu, Coach Sule, has that slogan as part of his email signature, and those are words are quite fitting.  If you have been following me on Twitter, then you know that a lot is going on in the life and times of @dbaOnTap. The blog title definitely says it all and change is a comin’!!

 

Have you ever thought to yourself, life is great! I wouldn’t change a thing! How quickly those things can change. I had a great job designing private cloud solutions with a phenomenal team, when a good friend and mentor presented me a new opportunity. I was comfortable and things were going great. However, maybe something different was a good thing. Maybe a different look at a familiar technology concept was what I needed? Maybe it was time to broaden my exposure to technology other than the Oracle stack that I had been working with for the past fourteen years. Wow, it really has been that long for me! While I loved my job and the team at Enkitec is awesome, the answer to all that was a resounding YES!

 

I reached out to several friends whose opinions I really respect (they will know when they read this). One gave rave reviews of the new company while acknowledging that shifting from Oracle can be “scary”, this was a great opportunity. Another said that working for a small development company was the one of the best things he’d ever done. With such positive comments, I knew that the decision to leave the comfortable and familiar was the right thing to do.
Let It Snow
When a great opportunity hits you, take it! So last month, I resigned from Accenture and on April 16, 2018, I’ll start writing my next chapter at Snowflake, the only data warehouse built for the cloud. Check us out Snowflake.net. I am looking forward to working with a new team, working on a new and different technology, and becoming the change I seek.

 

Let it SNOW!
