Celebrating International Women in Engineering Day
Happy International Women in Engineering Day!
Today we’re shining a spotlight on five incredible women who are shaping the future of cybersecurity and advice they’d give to women interested in pursuing a career in engineering.
“Don’t wait for validation from others—women are proving their strength in every field today, and there is nothing we can’t achieve. Find someone you trust, someone you can confide in during moments of doubt, but always keep moving forward and never give up.”--Jess Gonsalves, Director Customer Services, Global Customer Support (India)
"Resilience, curiosity, and a commitment to learning are essential for overcoming obstacles. Don’t fear failure; as Thomas Edison famously said, 'I have not failed, I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.' The true failure lies in not trying at all. Take the leap, advocate for yourself, and embrace the incredible opportunities ahead!" --Tania Mashkoory, Technical Program Manager, Cloud & Engineering Operations (USA)
"Stay curious, trust your abilities, and embrace every challenge as an opportunity to learn and grow. Each obstacle you encounter is a chance to showcase your resilience and strengthen your skills. The tech industry thrives on diverse perspectives, and your unique voice is essential to shaping its future." --Chhaya Choudhary, Senior Staff Machine Learning Engineer, ZPA Engineering (USA)
"Celebrate your successes, learn from obstacles, and always strive to evolve. You have the power to create meaningful impact both within your industry and beyond!" --Jaya Mallya, Sr. Manager, Business Applications Support, IT Digital Employee Experience (India)
"Embrace the journey of continuous learning. In an industry where technology evolves rapidly, consistently growing your skills will be essential to your success and impact as a woman in engineering." --Pratibha Nayak, Senior Software Architect, Shared Platform Services (India)
