Dive In With Iloriem McLaughlin: A Career Journey From Healthcare to Tech

Careers are such personal journeys - everyone’s path is different and brings unique experiences to their field. Sometimes major life events can completely change the trajectory of our career and steer us into an entirely new direction. Switching from one industry to another can be intimidating, but also exciting! These switches provide value to those fields, as you bring in a new perspective and skillset that you might have not found on a traditional career path. Iloriem McLaughlin, one of our wonderful software engineers, shared her career journey, leaving healthcare after the pandemic and jumping into the world of tech.

Dive In With Amber Sorenson: An Unconventional Path to Software Engineering

When we think of software engineering careers, oftentimes we picture a “traditional” path - getting a four-year degree right out of high school, and entering the workforce at an entry-level position. However, software engineering is a great career choice, no matter what your current or previous experience. We sat down with Amber Sorenson, one of our incredibly talented software engineers here at Kipsu, to talk about her career path, and how sometimes the less-traditional route can be an exciting way to enter a new field or industry.

Kipsu's Rotation Program Redefines the "Entry-Level" Experience

Our first Kipsu Entrepreneurial Leadership Rotation Program (ELRP) officially came to an end a few short weeks ago, and we couldn't be happier with the result! Kipsu kicked off its first Rotation Program last June with three ambitions individuals: Cara Christensen, Rachel Hain, and Connor Valenti, who thoroughly embraced the unique opportunity of the program. ELRP is a one year program where a rotation analyst rotates through the three largest teams at Kipsu: Engineering, Customer Partnerships, and Customer Success—then is placed on one of the teams at the end of the year.

Kipsu's Rotation Program Beta Cohort Measures the Past Year

Anyone who has seen the Broadway hit, “Rent,” has contemplated the question of “How do you measure a year?” It may be in daylights, or sunsets, midnights, or cups of coffee. For Kipsu’s recent Entrepreneurship Leadership Rotational Program (ELRP) graduates, they’d probably say something along the lines of measuring a year in rotations - three to be exact - on different teams at Kipsu...Oh...and cups of coffee.

Extending Goals Beyond the Workplace

With the sound of ornaments being packed away, trees tugged through the door, and the final baked goods munched, the Holiday Season comes to a close. For many, this sparks a new season of reflection and goal setting as the phrase “New year, new me” is tossed around. Kipsu focuses deeply on goals during work hours and is filled with many motivated, intentional individuals. This ignited my curiosity on what resolutions Kipsuvians set outside of work for 2019, and what “new self” people here are striving towards.
