Q&A with Michael Bonnet, Software Engineer

Q: What excites you the most about working at a company like Apex?
I love the opportunity to wear many hats at small startups and the learning and growth it provides. At Apex, it’s already happening.
Q: Why are you excited about space?
Coming from a family with a long history in military aviation, I’ve always loved things that go zoom and/or boom. In space, you (hopefully) give up the boom for a LOT more zoom.
Q: You are somewhat new here at Apex. What has surprised you the most so far?
Each employee is empowered to truly be a go-getter and get things done. Leadership trusts us enough to make it all happen.
Q: Tell us a bit about what you do in your free time.
Like every other software engineer, I rock climb and snowboard. I’m also working through every episode of Star Trek ever made.
