This research aims to underscore how women can navigate their careers in the ever-moving, unpredictable, fast-paced tech industry by performing gender. Previous research showed that tech is an industry of male domination and its obsession with masculinity, making it a discriminatory environment for women. However, a lack of research investigated how women navigate their careers in a dynamic environment. Therefore, this research wants to fill the gap of previous research by looking at how women navigate in a fast-paced, unpredictable, dynamic environment in tech because of its agile approach, obsessions with scale, growth, profit orientation, and instability due to layoffs. This study interviewed eight women from two OTA companies across three roles: product managers, designers, and engineers. In this ever-changing tech environment, women must overcome this social flux and uncertainty and assess and strategize to advance in their careers. With the qualitative research method, this study argues that women socially navigate their careers in tech by performing gender survive and thrive in a dynamic environment. In so doing, women perform femininity and masculinity. They switch between the binary gender characteristic to play their performativity.
