Bytes & Bites Ep.7: A Real (Unglamorous) Day as a Google Engineer

What’s a real day like as a software engineer at Google? In this vlog, I’m taking you through a busy, meeting-filled workday—one where it’s all about focus, back-to-back calls, and finding time to breathe… and maybe get back into fitness. 😅

A lot of vlogs show the perks of tech life (which I love sharing), but today’s episode is about the real side of being a SWE—deadlines, context switching, intense project work, and trying to stay sane through it all.

From standups and 1:1s to coding and caffeine breaks, this one’s for anyone who’s curious about the not-so-glamorous but totally relatable side of tech. Oh, and yes… I did hit the gym (there were goodies involved 😆).

🔍 What you'll see in this vlog:
✅ My meeting-heavy calendar & deep work struggles 🧠
✅ What it's actually like managing context switches as an L3 SWE 🧑‍💻
✅ Project work involving Python & LLMs
✅ Behind-the-scenes of working on an internal Google team
✅ A campus fitness challenge, snacks, and the mid-day grind 💪🍽️
