Colin Woodbury
プロフィール
Originally from Canada, Colin has been active in the Open Source world since 2011. Having worked at a number of software companies in various fields, Colin returned to Japan and joined CADDi in the fall of 2022. His reason for joining was CADDi's globalization efforts and their adoption of new technologies. He currently works in the DRAWER division, developing backend tools in Rust.
As a developer, he mainly uses Rust, Haskell, and Lisps. For hobbies, he enjoys language learning, singing, reading, climbing, golf, and snowboarding.
入社した経緯
I was looking for an internationally-minded Japanese company that uses modern technology to pursue meaningful ventures. CADDi's focus is on a real industry doing real work, which means the work is worthwhile.
国際風で現代的技術を使って意味のある企業で頑張っている日本の会社を探していました。CADDiの専門は製造、とてもやり甲斐のある業界です。
キャディでの仕事
I mainly do backend Rust development, developing and maintaining a number of internal components and libraries. I also teach Rust techniques at internal study sessions, and am one of the organizers of an English conversation practice group.
殆どRustでのバックエンド開発をやってきましたね。社内のコンポーネントやライブラリの開発や保守を担当しています。その他、社内の勉強会でRust技術を教えたり、英会話グループの管理もしています。
キャディエンジニアとして働く上で「難しくて面白いこと」
It has always been interesting to coordinate technical Japanese and English between various colleagues and teams.
様々な同僚やチームの間で英語と日本語を交互に会話するのが面白いですね。
趣味や休日の過ごし方
I sing in a choir, study languages, and also program a lot of Open Source software.
合唱団で歌ったり、言語を勉強したり、オープンソース開発も結構していますね。
