Today we chat with Doug Kay, a self-branded security-minded network engineer with past roles at multiple networking companies.

We tackle Doug's career journey from starting as a Novell and Windows administrator, to working at Juniper, Cisco, Gigamon, Nokia, and Arista, in various roles such as pre-sales, post-sales, and government contractor. He shares some of the challenges and opportunities he faced along the way, as well as some of the skills and technologies he learned.

Doug talks about how he learned to prioritize his family and hobbies over work, and how he found satisfaction and validation in his post-sales role at Arista. He also mentions some of his hobbies, such as cars and podcasting, and how they helped him cope with stress and connect with his father.

Accompany us to this great interview with our friend Doug Kay.

I remember this great quote from somebody at Juniper,
He said “erybody has something that they really care about
in this world that's important…”
and I thought he was gonna say work or money.
he said Family.
