I found Tom’s story to be inspiring, as it shows an unconventional career path in the tech industry. He then worked at an advertising company that was eventually acquired by Google, where he stayed since. Instead, he studied French at Duke and worked as a paralegal in Paris for a few years after college. Unlike most Duke graduates we met so far working in the tech industry in Silicon Valley, Tom did not graduate college with a technical background. I found the journey of Tom Price (’06), a product manager for YouTube’s growth platform, to be particularly interesting. It was very inspiring to have a glimpse into how YouTube delivers their service and innovates on new products.Īfter a tour of the offices, we met and talked with a panel of Duke alumni working in a variety of roles in YouTube, ranging from product management to data science. Under Google, the company has been growing continuously and is now being used by millions of people worldwide. YouTube innovated quickly and grew larger than even Google’s own video streaming service, so Google acquired the company in 2006. YouTube is the world’s largest video-sharing website founded in 2005. We continued our second week by visiting YouTube’s main offices in San Bruno.
