To whom it may concern,

I recently came across an opening for a Junior Software Engineer on your website and I’m very interested in the position.

For the last 6 years, I have worked with startups. First for a renewable energy hardware startup and then starting my own fintech company. I have fallen in love with the tech industry and the urgency, grit, and fast moving nature of startups. After working on the business side, I wanted to move into building products rather than working around them. So I enrolled in the General Assembly Wed Development Immersive to pick up the skills to contribute to product development.

Optoro is known for cutting edge logistical efficiency in the retail returns process and implementing a new tech paradigm to an overlooked industry segment. Optoro’s fast rise and institutional investor backing reflects both a successful product and a motivated team.

The passion that I have for tech startups and efficiency coupled with my new technical skill set, positions me to not only contribute at Optoro, but to support Optoro’s continued development into an industry leader and a nationally dominant tech company. I would appreciate the opportunity to meet in person and see if we would be a good fit.

Thanks and kind regards,

McEwen Hardy
