Are you a programmer and would like to grow? The Internet is full of materials on how to do this. Despite this, don’t run away – I have something that will interest you. Did you know that Adam Malysz, the legendary Polish ski jumper, was a roofer before he became a flying champion? I dare not compare myself with Mr. Adam, while there are two things we have in common.

In this article, I’ll share my personal experience on my journey from roofer to programmer to tech lead and give you tips you can apply to grow and advance and maybe even dramatically change your career.
