I've been an entrepreneur in the tech space for about 7 years, and before that worked full time as a low level graphics engineer. I have a business called Binomial where myself and my co-founder Rich sell compression software to tech businesses to boost their app or website's performance-- we also are the spec editors of industry-wide image standards and we host a very popular open source product called Basis Universal.  In addition to specializing in business, sales, and low level graphics optimization, I also have a background in computer art, having done technical art installations for large companies, and occasionally still sell my art in my own business. I used to live in Seattle, but I live out in rural Pennsylvania now with my chihuahua Honey and partner Michael. In my spare time I love baking/cooking, gardening, hiking, spending time with friends, casual reading, and unwinding to some good reality TV.  I'm not on social media much these days but you can reach out to me on my website's contact form, stephaniehurlburt.com, or check in on my Instagram or Twitter (sehurlburt) to see if I've popped back in there.

We’ve all heard advice to hustle, work harder, and push push push. And...most of us are exhausted as a result. So this week we’re talking to someone making the opposite choice: Stephanie Hurlburt, an entrepreneur who built a successful business, no nights and weekends required.Stephanie is the cofounder of Binomial, a company that makes image compression software. But she’s not a startup founder working 100 hours a week and trying to scale as fast as possible. Instead, she’s optimized her business for her mental and physical health—while still sharing her knowledge with industry newbies, closing big deals with companies like Google and Netflix, and healing from the trauma of domestic violence. The purpose of my job is to give me time in my life. And money can help give me time in some ways—for instance, if I amassed enough money to not need to work at all. But money can also not give me time. For instance, entering into a big contract where I was constantly on the clock. So, having that as a very clear priority really helps guide a lot of decisions.—Stephanie Hurlburt, cofounder, Binomial We talk about: Why business is always personal—and it’s ok to be yourself. “When I was working in the gaming industry, there was very much a boys club there... It kind of made me realize that I’m never going to get a real seat at that table. And when I’m open about myself, I’m definitely not getting a seat at that table. And maybe that’s okay! Maybe I find tables that actually accept me.” How to reframe networking as human by thinking about it as a natural give and take, not a transaction. “I feel like to a lot of people, they dread it because they see it as very transactional. And I don’t really see it that way.” Why letting an email sit for a day or two is actually an important part of setting boundaries. “The first conversation you have with someone, you’re setting some very key boundaries about what’s okay and what’s not okay, even if you’re not explicit about it.” How mental healthcare can help you break free of burnout cycles. “The number one thing that I wish I did when I was overworked was actually to see a therapist. Because I feel like I have grown so much through therapy and I have learned how to manage my time through therapy. If I had sought a therapist earlier, I could have prevented a lot of pain.” Plus, what Sara and Katel did on their summer vacation: unplug their laptops, drape themselves in linen, and go cliff diving with tween boys. No, really. Links: Stephanie’s websiteStephanie on Twitter BinomialBurnout: The Secret to Unlocking the Stress Cycle

Stephanie first told us about the detours that led her from math, art and political science to computer science. We then discussed her first jobs and her first mentor. We then touched on how she joined Oculus and Unity and their respective interview processes before switching gears and talking about entrepreneurship and her creating her own business. Stephanie was then very open about her technical burn out and explained how she feels it coming back.Stephanie Hurlburt is a graphics engineer and co-founder of Binomial, a software company based in Seattle that makes Basis, a popular image/texture compression product. Among other things, she previously worked on graphics engineering and engine programming at Oculus and Unity.Here are the links of the show:https://stephaniehurlburt.comhttps://twitter.com/sehurlburtGiving Back: The Role of Ethics in Open Source and Online Communities video with Scott Hanselman (@shanselman): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9BNSwKNadx4Book recommendations (affiliate links):"Boundaries" by Dr. Henry Cloud & John Townsend: https://amzn.to/2ZnWXcH"Why Does He Do That?" by Lundy Bancroft: https://amzn.to/2Zsgfxx"The body keeps the score" by Bessel van der Kolk https://amzn.to/2LjFKHvCreditsMusic Aye by Yung Kartz is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 License.Your hostSoftware Developer‘s Journey is hosted and produced by Timothée (Tim) Bourguignon, a crazy frenchman living in Germany who dedicated his life to helping others learn & grow.

This week, Chris and Soroush talk about something engineers are stereotypically bad at: negotiating. In particular, we really recommend setting aside half an hour to read the first link in the show notes: Patrick McKenzie: Salary Negotiation: Make More Money, Be More Valued Stephanie Hurlburt: “Just a PSA, I know of many people (Exact #? Hm. Over a hundred?) who are programmers making high six figures a year. …”

It's episode one hundred today — and we have a spectacular guest to celebrate! It's Patrick McKenzie, a SaaS thought leader who doesn't need an introduction. We talk about leveling up your business — starting with smaller products like books, and then progressing towards more complex ones. Patrick explains why products can make such positive influence on your life and business, shares stories and examples, and provides inspiration for those who are starting out.

Stephanie Hurlburt (@sehurlburt) shares the story of how she went from being an employee to being half of a 2-person startup that sells software to gaming companies, and all the steps in between. Learn how she quit her job, met her cofounder, landed lucrative contracting gigs, built a product, learned about sales, and stayed sane while doing it.Transcript, speaker information, and more: https://www.indiehackers.com/podcast/044-stephanie-hurlburt-of-binomial

Stephanie is a co-founder and graphics engineer at Binomial. She works on Basis, an image compressor, and has customers in games, video, mapping, and any application that has lots of image data. Stephanie has also been encouraging experienced engineers to open up their twitter DMs to questions from anyone, to help mentor people not only in technical questions, but in career questions as well. She also sets aside some time to mentor people through skype when written form just doesn't cut it. That's the primary reason I have Stephanie on today, to talk about mentoring and open office hours. But we also talk about - Binomial - image compression - texture mapping - the use of both manual and automated testing for complex systems - sane work hours - work life balance - and how long hours have led her to the opinions she holds today Special Guest: Stephanie Hurlburt.

Stephanie Hurlburt is founder and co-owner of Binomial. Binomial is making one of the best texture compressors. In this episode, Stephanie explains what texture compression is and why this is still a bottleneck in graphics engineering. We also talked about what graphics engineering is, and how she began working in this area when she was building art installations around companies. Stephanie also highlighted several open source projects and gave advice on how to get started in graphics engineering.

Stephanie Hurlburt and her co-founder at Binomial see a problem with how graphics and assets make their way from the CPU to the GPU and on to your screen. Now they're creating a new texture compressor and GPU Transcoder that will improve how your games look and play!
