Hello!!!
My name is Dan. Please call me Dan or another nickname that has stuck is smashing my first and last name together and calling me Dan-Dodge, which ironically is the exact opposite of a traditional nick name. 
I am located in Duncansville, PA, a small town about half way between Pittsburgh and Philadelphia.
I started using Ubuntu as my daily driver since Heron. I have utilized most long term support releases since. As a software engineer who has spent most of my career specialized in embedded Linux, my favorite bragging point is to tell people that I haven’t used Windows for 15+ years now. (except for PCB CAD software)
I have recently applied for an Embedded Linux Software position and was introduced to these discourse pages. I would love to dig in and get to know the community behind this amazing distro and get involved.
I am very interested in Ubuntu’s unique hiring process. I have two long standing passions in my career.
- Hardware
- The Linux Kernel
I am hoping there might be a need here for me where I can join these two passions.
Can anyone share with me their experience with how they became an Ubuntu collaborator?
