I left my job to work with the technologies (embedded rust, SQL, custom PCBs, typescript & angular, more rust server side) and practices I'd been dying to use and build a solution for a problem I had.

A big part was also the desire to control complexity and lead product direction instead of taking assignments knowing they were the wrong direction for the products and their consumers.
