If you’ve ever worked at a software development company like Aysling you know that software engineers/developers can be an eclectic group of individuals, today’s Aysling Team Spotlight is no different. Here’s an interesting side story of when I had the pleasure of meeting Brian Gonzales for the first time. It was my first day working at Aysling and I was being introduced to the team. Going through the traditional routine of small chit-chat, “what did you do before you ended up here”, etc. with the rest of the team, Brian’s first statement was, “We don’t need to make small talk.”

Now some might find that intimidating; however, from that point on we’ve had interesting and meaningful conversations, rather than the, “What did you do this weekend?” talks that traditionally plague the offices of other companies. Curious to learn what some of our conversations might be about? Well here’s your chance, learn more about Aysling Software Engineer, Brian Gonzales.
