I am 23. I finished my B.S. in Computer Engineering from Purdue University in December 2004. I moved to Colorado 6 months ago after receiving job offers there. I love this state! There are a lot of things to do and see here, and it's politically neutral. Plus, I'm a fan of winter sports, snow, the mountains, and the Snow Miser.
My job title is "Senior Firmware Engineer". It is a specialized form of computer engineering. But currently it boils down to designing and writing large amounts of C code for "embedded devices". These are devices which are basically appliances, i.e. designed for one purpose. Consumer electronics, car computers, kitchen appliances, etc. are all examples. But inside they're still computers. My employer is in the business of building the next generation of digital video recorders (DVRs). I've learned an awful lot about the cable business in my tenure at this job too.
In a few years I'll probably get a MBA and/or a MS in electrical/computer engineering, and hopefully run a company like this. I am a big fan of intellectual work, and I believe we need more people doing this kind of work in the USA.
