About ljoshua
A technologist, founder, and current Googler, I've repeatedly taken products from inception to commercial success across sectors, from startups to Fortune 10 companies. My specialty lies in bridging the gap between business vision and technical execution, deeply engaging with code and who mentors teams. Beyond engineering, I bring a global perspective from living abroad for nine years and speaking fluent French.

I've had at least 256GB on my phones for the last couple of generations after having had to deal with storage issues beforehand, and it's been much nicer. But I picked up a 16e for…
