After 15 years working for NetApp I decided I wanted to write a book on my experiences during this time, it’s a bit of a ‘history of NetApp’ and the changing industry.

About Matt Watts – CTE International at NetApp

Matt Watts - Director, Technology and Strategy EMEA at NetApp

I’m an ambivert and an engineer, it’s taken a lot of different experiences in order for me to realise that this is the most appropriate description for who I am though.

I’ve always had a lot to say, I think being an engineer means I’m constantly looking for solutions to problems or analysing things to see how they could be done better, or sometimes just wondering why someone made a particular decision on how to build something.

Then I want to chat about it.

I work closely with the Office of the CTO, Product Operations and Marketing teams at NetApp, but I spend most of my time at events or with businesses articulating NetApp’s Strategy and the business value of IT.

This is my personal blog and does not necessarily represent the views of my employer.

@MichaelCade1 I’ve had to mix it up a bit as well, I try and do 3 x 6K’s each week but use the bike and rower on the other days. Looks like my old knees can’t deal with anything more than that.
