+In this semester, I interned at 7Factor Engineering, LLC.
+My site supervisor this semester was Ms Chelsea Green, a senior software
+engineer at 7Factor.
+This role is similar to a management role.
+
+While I was at the internship site---actually, scratch that.
+This internship was conducted entirely online because of COVID-19, so
+while I didn't need to drive anywhere, I also didn't see any of my
+coworkers in person.
+The entire company, especially at the beginning of my internship in
+January, was conducting business online because software development
+is less tied to a central location than other careers.
+
+My responsibilities centered around writing code to fix bugs or add
+features to WellEntry.
+WellEntry is a, quote, ``digitally accelerated health screening
+solution'' to help clients like schools or offices protect against
+COVID.
+This included writing the code, of course, but also writing a lot about
+what the code does in ``Pull Requests,'' a way of saying ``this code is
+ready to be reviewed,'' and fixing issues in the visible form,
+usable functionality, or code style.
+I also communicated a lot with my team lead and other people working
+with WellEntry (like Chief Product Officer Justin Cullifer) over Slack,
+where 7Factor workers discuss engineering problems and solutions.
+
+I chose to work in software development because I want to be a software
+developer in my professional career, so I was interested in getting
+hands-on experience with a project that needs to respond quickly to user
+needs.
+
+From this internship experience, I now know that I want to be a software
+developer if the career is anything like my internship, because I love
+this kind of problem-solving, even if it requires banging your head
+against the wall over and over and over again.
+I also learned that I get really focused into a task, which, while
+sometimes beneficial, means that I should focus more on intentionally
+managing my priorities and schedules between different assignments and
+responsibilities.
+
+The most interesting thing I saw during my internship was the day that
+my code broke prod.
+7Factor, like a lot of other good companies in the software development
+space, blames the process rather than the person for the issue, so the
+team that was fixing it up focused on quickly reverting the last release
+so that the issue would stop happening, and writing tests to make sure
+it doesn't happen again.
+
+This internship has taught me a lot about how to structure maintainable
+code on a large, team-built project where I don't know every detail of
+many of the components.
