A Day in the Life of a Microsoft Software Engineer | Seattle

Watch a day in my life as a software engineer at Microsoft’s headquarters near Seattle. While I am based in Silicon Valley, I sometimes travel to the Redmond headquarters in person, and I hope you enjoy a sneak peak into all the cool stuff at the Redmond Campus.

To those wondering: No, I am not an intern. I am a full-time employee. I know I have a baby face. Don’t remind me. Also, I may or may not still be an engineer. #DayInTheLife #SoftwareEngineer #microsoft

Also, all the experiences, thoughts, and views displayed in this video are purely my own and don’t represent the company.

You're living a dream life of so many students 🙌🔥

As someone that works in a stuffy, dated office building surrounded by cubicles, this really shows how innovative big tech companies are in creating a comfortable environment to be productive!

25% coding, 10% eating/drinking, 65% looking for a place to sit

That's a very very calm and smooth working day, as a petroleum engineer my day is full of working with a huge load of operations, production issues, meetings/communications, and presentations in addition to other long-term tasks. I can barely take a rest during my one-hour lunch break because there's always so much to do.

That’s where I see myself in next few years, Really great campus, couldn’t expect for anything else, you’re lucky to be there, Congrats !!!

Man, never thought working at Microsoft would be such a journey. I always imagined working at Microsoft would be more like sitting in a desk all day and typing stuff .

Cool video man, like the humble approach of actually showing that sometimes you can't always solve problems by yourself and need help from colleagues, i've started as a software engineer, just hitting a year, and it does have its ups and downs, but definitely a priviledge to be in the field

It's my dream to be able to work in one of the big tech companies one day! Just finished high school and are going to read my bachelors this winter being engineering in software technology! Can't wait! Great video :)

It’s how these “A day in the life” videos have them waking up at exactly 7am like The Undertaker

[ariobotgaming]

Probably the loneliest Day in a office video i've ever seen😂.

Keep it up, gotta keep up the grind.

[Tetrax]

Holy shit bro this is amazing! 10/10 funnier and more realistic than most of the day in my life videos Just applied for Microsoft’s new grad position without a referral. Fingers crossed 🤞

After Microsoft you can now be a influencer, really good video! I am a software developer myself and the vibe from those FANG-like companies is just insane and nice. Hoping to work there once in the future!

Well that is very different to my days at Microsoft in the late 80's. We lived there after moving to the 4 buildings on their new campus. 80-100 hour weeks was crazy. I was on the OS/2 kernal so debugging was a fun challenge. Good luck to you.

Thank god. I am living in Indian village and doing work from home. Family, Home food, random chat with people, movie theatres and street cricket apart from work makes me happy than in USA.

Thanks for making this video and giving is a glimpse into your day. This was incredibly enjoyable to watch!! As someone who works in a place where you see the same 4 walls all the time. I often envy those who get to switch scenery often 😕

[harshpatel-wrjl]

after watching this I realize one thing .. in India or outside of India we web Developer's Life is same lonely and peaceful. great video

[irfann.]

Now that's what I call "Quality Of Life", very different than what I experienced, hope I can have same or better position in the future! Great Video!

[devikabavirshetti]
