Didn't you have a chance to express the preference of where you'd like to end up? Also, did you were a fresh grad when you got hired?

I was offered the choice between three teams, all of which sounded interesting and only one of which worked on open source. I chose pagespeed mostly because I was interested in working on the A/B testing framework, which needed a new owner.

I wasn't a fresh grad; four years and two jobs out of school at that point.

You're doing good work with ngx_pagespeed! Been running ngx_pagespeed in production for a couple of months now and very happy with it.

Thanks! Let me know if you have any issues with it.
