I passed the triplebyte interview.

Physics major (Bachelors of Science) turned software developer. One year as a backend developer at a common lisp shop. Looking for a linux based company. (macOS as workstation computer/laptops is great too!). Avid learner, I try to read and learn as much as possible, I've recently gone through Designing Data Intensive Applications, and Designing Distributed Systems.

Would be glad to work at a company that uses a functional language, such as Haskell, especially if they don't expect new employees to come in already knowing the language. Also highly interested in companies using Rust, python, or go.

Ambitious: only been at the company a year and spent a significant amount of time this summer directing an intern, overhauled the build system the company uses internally (set up jenkins over previous system).

Eager to learn as much as I can.

Charlie: as fellow AMO experimental physicist who got a PhD less than a year ahead of you but went straight industry, I recommend you look into how to translate your experience into what someone in industry may be looking for. Brain dump to follow. Take or leave what you'd like.

One of the challenges of an experimental physicist PhD is that you're a very good hack at nearly every engineering field, but not a product builder (largely because the apparatus you're building is n=1). You're not an EE but familiar with what they do and can "hack" their day job. You're not a ME but can hack solidworks to make a part and putz in the machine shop. You're not a programmer but can hack that too. You'd be great in any research environment, but those are hard to find. R&D departments usually skew heavily D, and not so much R.

I've found that systems engineering (the design and test type, not the network admin type) is a solid field for experimental physicists. But most systems engineers reside at bomb building companies. I've been fortunate to find a good fit at a life sciences company that builds products for research labs. Maybe you can too?

To the wider HN crowd, any other industry niches that you know of that fit the experimental physicist skill-set? Usually something that mixes both hardware and software is best. The typically advice I hear is become a programmer... but code without hardware is boring :) ducks

P.S. Charlie, the research work you've done is _really_ cool stuff.
