Cafecito with Yelp Engineering: Navigating Multiple Identities in Tech

Various facets of our identities often play a significant role in our professional experiences. From gender to nationality to class (and more), different parts of our identities can intersect in unique ways that shape our perspectives, opportunities, and how we navigate the world.

Join Yelp for a discussion that will explore the topic of intersectionality in the tech industry. We’ll hear from software engineer Luis Daniel Rady Colunga and engineering manager Ana Alvarado-Virág on how their identities have influenced their careers. They’ll share insights on how they navigate working in an internationally distributed workforce, including their experiences being members of groups such as SomosYelp—a Yelp employee resource group dedicated for Yelpers who identify as Hispanic/Latinx and allies to connect, learn and support one another.

We’ll chat about:

• Speakers’ personal and professional journey in tech
• Intersections of gender and race in engineering
• Understanding the impact of imposter syndrome
• Strategies for fostering inclusivity and overcoming challenges

Come along for an insightful conversation and learn what it’s like to work at Yelp!

☕ Attendees (limited number) will receive a voucher for a complimentary cafecito to enjoy during the event.
