From Diplomacy to OTP: Mackenzie Morgan's Path to Erlang and Elixir

In this episode of Elixir in Focus, part of the SE4FP https://se4fp.github.io/2025/ warm-up series, host Adolfo Neto welcomes Mackenzie Morgan, a senior backend engineer at Level All. Mackenzie shares her journey into technology, which began with a focus on Japanese and International Affairs at university. She recounts how the "siren song of the computer lab" and a scheduling conflict between an algorithms class and a Japanese class ultimately led her to a computer science degree, a path she had already begun exploring through her contributions to the Ubuntu project as an undergraduate. Mackenzie describes herself like this: “I'm a programmer who writes Elixir and Erlang. Former Ubuntu developer. I enjoy languages, Argentine tango (especially queer tango!), historic costuming, and photography. Washington Spirit & USWNT fan ⚽.” Website: https://wandering.shop/@maco Original livestream    • From Python to Erlang and Elixir, Mackenzi...   Elixir em Foco website https://elixiremfoco.com/index_en.html The Erlang Ecosystem Foundation https://bit.ly/3Jma95g supports the Elixir em Foco podcast by funding the software we use to record the episodes.
