Because my last two jobs were writing digital asset management software for entertainment companies, today I got a call from another entertainment company for “Director of Application Architecture for the Media Services software development team with a key focus on Digital Media Archive”. The HR person had “heard great things” about me and think I would be perfect for this position. “Does it require interacting with other human beings?”, I ask.
I am a coder, a pretty good system architect, not too bad at putting out fires. Even a pretty good mentor in small doses. But I am not management material.
