Jess didn’t grow up dreaming of being in tech. Like many career changers, she once saw tech as intimidating, a gated community reserved for those fluent in math and machine logic. But that perception started to crack after she stumbled on a Code First Girls ad on Instagram. In this episode of Technically, A Podcast, Mia sits down with Jess Gilbert, a former primary school teacher turned Software Engineer. She now builds front-end features at Sky Betting & Gaming and runs her Instagram page, @teacher2coder, where she shares her journey and helps others do the same. As it turns out, the skills she sharpened in the classroom, like clear communication, planning, and patience, make her a standout in tech too.
