“Live up to the time, the creation of non-stop, this article is participating in 2021 year-end summary essay competition”

As I write this review, I have just begun my maternity leave. Accustomed to work all day busy, I work for more than 6 years, the first time to put such a big holiday, more or less some do not adapt. I really want to sum up 2021 when I have nothing to do. When I see Juejin there is an activity, I am itching to join in and see if I can mix a baseball cap.

  • work

I joined this company after graduation in 2015. In more than six years of working time, I started from R&D to project manager and returned to R&D at the beginning of this year. The reason is that after closing the last project at the beginning of the year, I took the initiative to apply for a transfer to the current large-scale project team. Because the project team lacks back-end technical personnel, I am positioned as a pure technical personnel.

One of the changes brought about by post adjustment is the change of discourse power. I used to work as a project manager. Although the project was small, the project manager had the right to make decisions. The project manager is responsible for everything from project cycle planning, work priorities, staffing, etc., so the pace can be in his own hands. Now do back to research and development, there are superior person in charge, superior person in charge, although we have the same qualifications, but basically is the need to report everything. For this, to have mental preparation, before but I believe that harvest here must be greater than the lost, so while real feel the presence of lower or there will be some loss, but with a lot of learning to think of something let me no time lost, has been put on the content of all work.

Of course, the direct benefit of doing R&D is the accumulation of technical capabilities. In order to solve various technical problems and write various technical solutions this year, I have consulted many official manuals, technical blogs and framework source code, and I have some effective outputs in the project team. Especially in the large-scale project architecture, we learned a lot of excellent experience of internal and external project teams. Of course, we also paid a lot of price for the negative impact of multiple structural adjustments on the project progress and team members’ morale. But I believe we’re on the right path, and we’re getting very close to the truth as we iterate on the architecture. In the field of distributed system, I can say that I have the understanding of starting from scratch. Before, I only did single system, and everything I did was relatively direct. This year, I have some ideas on many issues in the distributed field, such as the consistency guarantee of distributed transactions, which can be said to open my eyes. There are many points in this year’s work that can form effective output. I always wanted to publish several technical blogs on the company’s internal forum, but I was busy and delayed. In the last 21 years, I updated one technical blog for the whole year, and the output was seriously insufficient, which made me feel regretful.

After working for several years, the most important thing to think about is the future career path. As a 30+ back-end woman, should I continue to follow the technical path, or change management/product sooner rather than later? Inspired by Teacher Zhong Hua’s “The Tao and Technique of Digital Transformation”, I feel that it is the most suitable path for me to be a business expert who is proficient in business and knows technology. My understanding of the business field was limited by the project system working mechanism in the past few years. After the completion of a project, I would work on another project without stopping. The contents of each project were often different, so although I seemed to have touched many contents, I did not have a systematic understanding of any business field. And on technology, often is enough to go, also do not talk about progress, let alone the gap with Internet big factory programmer. The construction route of the project team I am working in now just meets my requirements for this road development. If I can summarize, accumulate and think about the panoramic view of this business in my work next year, I believe I can accumulate strong core competitiveness and broaden my career development path.

  • life

Life will also change in 2021. At the beginning of the year, I went home to do a drink at the end of April. Labor Day and teammates driving xinjiang, play very much fun, Xinjiang is too fun, worth two brush three brush. Then I found out I had a baby (/ω \), but the baby was really good, there was very little discomfort during pregnancy, and my colleagues said I looked really solid. Pregnancy must have an impact on work, but fortunately, leaders and colleagues are very caring, I should work overtime did not less overtime, plus the baby to the power, smooth li hard work until the end of the year.

  • In the future

When it comes to planning for 2022, the biggest challenge will be how to balance work and life as a mom-to-be. I want to be a good mother, but at the same time I will not give up my job, I still have a long life, I need to realize my social value through work, it is very important for me to build my self-identity. On the one hand, I need the support of the support group, including my teammates and parents, to change the parenting of the baby from me to something shared by everyone, so as not to overwhelm one person, right? What’s more, it is easy for a person to become paranoid and unaware that focusing all his energy on one thing is not an optimal choice. On the other hand, depending on my own professional persistence, I think this year-end summary is a good start for me to make the idea of starting a technology blog a reality. I also hope that in 2022, I can use more spare and fragmented time to read, think and write.

I am full of confidence in my future, whether for work or life. This is influenced by my father, who is quite confident and optimistic. I do not have his confidence, but I have inherited the optimistic attribute. Girls who laugh and work hard don’t have too much luck.

Those are three thoughts from an expectant programmer at the end of the year.
