Working at a Growing Energy Startup
By Yassine Khayati ‘25
Helping clients achieve efficient and more sustainable energy management
What did I do?
- I worked on a backend feature for their dashboard. I wrote a python script that checks the status of the control device to see if they are on the the correct status.
What did I learn?
- I learned a lot of new skills for software engineering, I learnt many new technologies and libraries that come with python such as Pandas, datetime objects, Boto3, serverless framework etc.
- I learnt that I do enjoy this kind of work, and I want to do it in the foreseeable future.
- I learnt that software engineering is a lot of research and figuring stuff on your own and knowing how to learn, which seems like fun for me.
