Ask HN: Stories of breaking into tech without a tech background?

7 pointsby marginalcodexover 8 years ago
Has anyone on here transitioned into working in the tech&#x2F;start up world without a tech background (specifically, for a non-tech role)?<p>I&#x27;d love to hear stories about the transition.

Austin Gunter wrote a great book about how to do exactly that, &quot;The Liberal Arts Techie: How to Break into your First Startup Job&quot; ( <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.amazon.com&#x2F;Liberal-Arts-Techie-Break-Startup-ebook&#x2F;dp&#x2F;B01IB3OD0A&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.amazon.com&#x2F;Liberal-Arts-Techie-Break-Startup-ebo...</a>) based on his personal experiences.<p>More about Austin: <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.austingunter.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.austingunter.com&#x2F;</a><p>He&#x27;s a coworker, full disclosure, but it&#x27;s a good book that I paid for with my own money.
