Yamada-san, why did you decide to become an engineer?

Triggered by being exposed to programming in high school, I awakened to the joy of making things.

I see. So the trigger was education.

Yes. I majored in IT at university, but as my studies progressed, I began to feel that practice was more interesting than theory.

Practice is important. On the other hand, isn't it tough to keep chasing the latest technology?

Certainly, technological progress is fast. However, every time I learn something new, I feel excited as if my world is expanding.

Not at all. If you think that you can polish your skills incidentally while working, it's not a struggle.

For you, Yamada-san, no matter how the environment changes, it seems you'll be able to keep working in your own way.
