Amazon Web Services (opens in new tab)

Today marks four years since I joined AWS. My last day will be Friday.\nI have to say being fired from AWS is actually a relief. There have been a lot of changes to the company since I joined in 2022, and the company I wanted to work for is no longer the same company.\nThis past year, while I was doing my best to make AWS play nice in open source communities, there were two main drivers making me unhappy with my job: organizational change and the acceleration of the focus on Generative AI.\n
