#176 Sebastien Stormacq was a developer advocate before the term even existed
Sebastien took us back to his discovery of the C64 in the 80s and his passion for DJing on public radio. We then talked about his studies in Computer Sciences and how he landed in the software industry. We spoke about consulting, customer centricity, and learning. Seb spoke about how Java entered his life, leading him to become a renowned expert in Luxemburg and eventually working for Sun Microsystems, Oracle, and IBM. We finally spoke about giving training, being a pre-sales engineer/solution architect, and how this led him to join Amazon AWS and eventually earn Developer Advocate.
