For the last few years, several members of my team and I have been working with a Fortune 500 global company to help build a Node.js ecommerce platform. We learned many valuable lessons along the way. Lessons we feel are too valuable not to share.

Tips & Tricks for being a successful remote employee
Due to recent events, lots of people are now "Work From Home (WFH)". If you have never worked from home for long periods of time, it can feel a little weird at first. You might find yourself easily distracted by the TV, streaming services, chores, or your bed might be calling your name. Working from home can be a great experience - start with little changes to get comfortable. I want to share some of the things that have helped me in being a full-time remote employee for Bitovi for the past four years.

There has been a continual drive towards remote work in the tech industry - commutes are awful, interruptions suck, and open office layouts are the actual worst. The remote lifestyle seems glamorous and appealing, and as a woman I sure love a thermostat set for MY body (amIright, ladies?), but there are considerations for whether remote working is a good fit for everyone. After all, there are no snow days when you work remote.

For most of my career I've worked at marketing agencies or SaaS startups so moving into the world of consulting was a big shift for me. I'm a competent developer with 10+ years of JavaScript experience and no stranger to scary legacy code bases (some might say least a 6.5x engineer) but there were some key skill areas I had to grow in to better serve clients.
I've created a list of "13 Things an Angular Consultant Needs to Know to Be Successful" categorized under three broader skill areas - Building a Brand, Understanding the Technology, and Dealing with Other People's Code.

A Fortune 100 company who needed to ensure millions of users are never without service wanted to streamline their DevOps procedures to solve a myriad of problems most enterprise-level companies face when working at a large scale. In particular, they were interested in:
- Alleviating some of the burdens of Site Reliability Engineers (SREs)
- Minimizing the risks of human error
- Ensuring proper communication and visibility around issues when they arose in a way that could scale efficiently as the infrastructure grows.
Let’s investigate these problems in-depth and see how DevOps automation with StackStorm helped SREs automate common tasks, minimize downtime, and sleep easier in a scalable, reliable, and fully customizable way.
