Meet Kari, Risk & Control Manager at Starling. With a 17-year career spanning tech and banking, Kari proves there’s no "one size fits all" route into the industry. Originally planning on a career in physiotherapy, she pivoted to tech after becoming fascinated by how complex projects go wrong and wanting to be part of the solution.

Key takeaways from Kari’s journey:
- You don’t need to code: Kari skipped computer science for information systems, proving that transferable skills and problem-solving are just as critical as writing code.
- The "technical" myth: Many women are put off because they don’t view themselves as technical. The industry needs diverse skill sets, and retraining programmes make entering tech possible at any career stage.
- Representation matters: While the tech-banking crossover can feel lonely as you advance, employee networks and visible role models are vital for keeping women connected and supported.

If web or backend development is the engine room of a business, Mobile Dev is the steering wheel:
- Intimacy vs distance: You aren’t building for a distant browser; you are building for the device that sits in a user's pocket, wakes them up, and handles their most personal data.
- Peak optimisation vs infinite resources: You don’t have the luxury of endless memory or a constant connection. You have to write elegant, hyper-efficient code that respects battery life, screen sizes, and spotty 5G.
- Immediate feedback vs slow release: Your work is directly judged on the App Store and Google Play. A bad user experience doesn't just mean a dropped session; it means a deleted app.
