Sometimes your dream career is the one you discover along the way. Juliana González Garzón's journey into technology didn’t begin with coding. It started in Industrial Design, fuelled by a curiosity about how people interact with the world around them. That curiosity led her in an unexpected direction into the world of IT, where she observed something that still drives her today: when systems work intuitively, people feel greater autonomy and confidence. That belief now guides the work she leads at Convatec, as IT Operations Manager, based in our Bogotá CBS hub, creating technology that empowers and removes obstacles. At Convatec, she has grown technically and professionally in an environment where she feels respected, supported and encouraged to contribute ideas and explore new ways of working. Working across different regions, Juliana has discovered how Convatec’s culture of collaboration, continuous improvement and our commitment to being 𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘤𝘢𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨 leads to better solutions for our teams and the people we serve. As she’s progressed, Juliana has watched the tech landscape evolve - with broader representation, more diverse perspectives and a growing focus on inclusive workplaces where everyone can thrive. Her journey shows there’s no single path into tech. Her advice to women exploring roles in IT at Convatec – and to anyone looking to grow in the field - stay curious, adaptable and open to where your skills can make the biggest impact....Show more
