Are you a Software Engineer who loves solving complex problems but wants to be in the room where the high-level strategic decisions are made?
The transition from "building the product" to "building the business" is one of the most rewarding career pivots you can make—but it requires a complete overhaul of your professional narrative, resume, and interview style.
Join me for a deep-dive session where I break down my personal journey from iOS Engineer at Target to McKinsey Consultant, and now into Strategy & Corporate Development at Monotype. I’ll share the exact "translation layer" I used to turn technical achievements into the strategic language that elite firms and C-suite executives value.
What we’ll cover:
-The Resume Translation: How to stop talking about "tech stacks" and start talking about "value levers" and ROI.
-The McKinsey Case Interview for Engineers: Leveraging your logical, structured thinking to crush business cases without an MBA.
-The "Exit" Strategy: Moving from consulting into Strategy/Ops, Corporate Development and M&A—what the day-to-day actually looks like. Or even breaking directly into those roles from SWE (without consulting)
-Q&A Session: Open "Ask Me Anything" regarding salary benchmarking, networking, skillsets and leveling up your business acumen.
Whether you are looking to break into MBB or want to move into Strategy/Ops at a startup, this session will provide the blueprint for your pivot.
