I’m Yulia Eskin.
It’s important that you know that I’m a 3-time immigrant (Belarus, Israel, Canada and USA) because it’s the largest part of my identity and has helped me see that everything in life, similarly to computer science, is a system. Maybe my love for math and CS started with me being an immigrant.
After completing my MSc. in computer vision and AI and working in research, I found myself wanting to better the world by moving to San Francisco and working in the health-tech startup scene. That’s where I grew from a very junior engineer to a senior engineer, tech lead and team lead.
In 2020, I quit my job and now I’m a leadership coach for engineers in tech.
I love helping engineers discover their confidence and talking all things tech, product and immigrants.
More than anything, I get inspired hearing other people’s life & career stories and how they chased their dreams. I’m driven, ambitious, intellectual, thoughtful and love teaching and mentoring.
My mission is to use my technical expertise & my unique point of view as an immigrant to impact others like me to recognize their strengths and go after their big dreams.
