I also find it difficult to explain my work to non-engineers, especially non-technical people in general. When I did software, I must say that I may not have given quality the appropriate respect. At my company though, I think there simply weren’t enough QA people, so they never had time to do much for us, so we assumed they just wouldn’t show up to meetings, etc.
My work meaningful… Well, I do work with things that will have a physical end result. But the timeline is YEARS and my piece is a tiny fraction…
What makes it meaningful to ME is if something challenges me and I come up with a working solution. Or if I get to work in the lab and I finally make something work.
No one seems to like it when I tell them I manipulate strings of symbols for a living, even though it works on many levels.
At the highest level, I manipulate strings: I write some code; I write some documentation; I write an email.
The compiler is a string of bits that takes another string of bits, the source code, as input and outputs another string of bits, the object file. Once the object file is loaded into memory and executed, it reads strings of bits as input and writes strings of bits as output.
So I write strings that get transformed by a string into other strings, which then, in turn, transform strings into other strings.
At the moment, part of what is meaningful is that I am working for myself, so I am learning how to build a business.
I always have an eye peeled for like-minded, entrepreneurial folks. So much to learn.
My jobs at the hospital and the library have the advantage of being very tangible. I can say that I tested X babies or spent so many hours helping patrons take home good books or making those books available. I think that’s why I enjoy them so much.
While our work is less tangible it is still very satisfying. I wonder how much of our perception of our work being less meaningful comes from people outside of the industry not understanding what goes into software. Does making software that is easy to install lead people to believe that programming is just as easy? And therefor less meaningful? I think so.
I was being questioned by a family member today why I don’t do something ‘real.’ I find my work as a programmer very rewarding. Especially when you see something working that you made.
This is a great post. I’ve never put much thought into why friends are unmotivated by their jobs, but the reason of the intangible product seems like it could contribute to that.
As for the QA engineer aspect, I’m glad you took pride in your role. Currently, I am also exploring which role my skills and interests would provide the most satisfying career. I have thought that I’d be interested in a hardware test/characterization position, but for some reason, some ppl seem to think that it is not as glorious as design or going to the managing track. I guess because managers and designers take most of the credit for the project, but I think characterization is extremely important as well.
Do what you love and love what you do. Apply dedication, balance, systemization, and defined goals and you are on your way to total success.
