In this article, "Away From the Keyboard," MongoDB developer Kyle Lai discusses his role as a Software Engineer 2 at MongoDB, where he works on Atlas Growth 1, an experimentation platform that helps teams improve user experience. He emphasizes the importance of work-life balance and how it allows him to enjoy both his professional and personal life. To achieve this balance, Kyle sets boundaries by not checking work messages outside of work hours, using his commute as a transition point between work and personal time, and associating certain events with cutoffs for checking work things. He advises others to prioritize self-care, establish clear notification settings, and disconnect from work-related tasks outside of work hours to maintain a healthier work-life balance.
