If you’re in the Ottawa area on Wednesday and you’ve been looking for tech get-togethers or a chance to meet the Shopify crew, you’re in luck! We’ve got a couple of events taking place, and as the Shopify spokesmodel, I’ll be at both of them:
- Land Your Dream Job 2.0, which takes place at Mercury Lounge from 4:00 – 6:00 p.m.
- Node.JS Ottawa Pub Nite, which takes place at the Sir John A. Pub from 7:00 – 9:00 p.m.
I’ve got both events written up on the Shopify Tech Blog and Global Nerdy. See you there!
