We’re reaching a curious point.
It’s not that I don’t code anymore. I don’t even write.
I just tell the computer what I want it to do… and the damn thing figures it out. Builds it. Works.

If you’re an engineer and don’t like doing marketing or product, here’s my advice:
bring it onto your turf.
Measure conversions, run A/B tests, analyze engagement, look at funnels, compare cohorts, find patterns.
🇨🇭 Moving to Switzerland was the biggest social elevator I’ve ever experienced.
I think I’ve picked the perfect time to quit my job.
Right now, the possibilities are endless, companies still haven’t adapted, the models have just taken a huge leap in quality, and we’re still getting subsidized tokens.
The chaos I’m going to cause in a couple of months 👀
🇨🇭 The lie I was told before moving to Switzerland:
“You need to speak German or French to work here.”
False.
In tech, English is enough. If you’re good, of course.
If I get laid off, I know I can find another job.
I have the safety net, the skills, and the confidence.
That thought saves me so many headaches... When I arrived in Switzerland with almost no experience and no money, every day at work was a fight for survival.
I'm really happy with how well things are going with my company. The transition is feeling very natural, with a lot of good faith on both sides.
In fact, they've made it pretty clear that if I ever need a job again, I shouldn't hesitate to reach out to them.
So yeah… I guess if my projects fail, I'll always have a Swiss salary waiting for me somewhere 📈
🇨🇭 Why is Switzerland a saver’s paradise?
What you save in Spain in 10 years, you can save here in 5.
💰 Salaries that let you save without living on rice and water. 🩸 Taxes that don’t bleed you dry. 🌱 Stability that gives you peace of mind.
🇨🇭 Moving to Switzerland was the biggest social elevator I’ve ever experienced.
I couldn’t be more grateful to this country and its people
It’s strange to live in a country, a city, a home that your friends, family, and partner will never know. A job and a life that remain a blur to everyone you love.
