TLDR: What do you do at your job?
  • I work on the Google One app for Android by fixing bugs and developing features. I also often collaborate with others on design decisions.
Can you explain what you (or your team) is currently building and what your role entails as part of this team?
  • My team is working on the Google One app for Android, and my role as a Software Engineer on the team is to help develop it, which sometimes includes designing implementations. The team also often works with other teams across Google One and even other teams from different product areas within Google.
What's the process of getting this job?
  • I was reached out to by a recruiter on LinkedIn. After a technical phone interview, I had a virtual on-site series of 3 technical interviews and one "Googlyness" (behavioral) interview. After this, there was a phase of team matching interviews where I met with managers from different teams in order to find a team that best matched both parties' interests.
What hard skills do you use for your job?
  • Android and Java.
What key things helped you the most in getting this job?
  • Building PathFinder (this site!) greatly helped me in getting this job, as it was a side project that allowed me to demonstrate my capabilities as well as my passion in building things to help others. Doing LeetCode problems and studying their solutions also helped a lot in the interviews.
What's your favorite thing about your job/career?
  • I like how Google encourages me to take charge of my career by having a vast amount of resources available at any time, and by giving me the freedom to decide how much I want to work and what I want to work on.

TLDR: What do you do at your job?
  • I build out ML features such as rating how "risky" it is to give X employees access to Y features, and other features to improve the UX of our Access Management software.
Can you explain what you (or your team) is currently building and what your role entails as part of this team?
  • Our team's product is an Access Management software that companies would buy so that their employees use it to request for different internal apps/accounts, and the companys' IT admins will manage/automate it using the software we built.
What's the process of getting this job?
  • A resume phone interview, a ML technical interview, and on-site interview which consists of 1 ML interview, 1 LC medium interview, and a couple resume interviews)
What hard skills do you use for your job?
  • Python and its libraries across the entire AI stack. Datadog for observability.
What key things helped you the most in getting this job?
  • Taken several ML internships when I was in school which I assume helped me get the interview. I was pretty familiar with Sklearn so it was easy to pass the interview that uses Sklearn and I was able to answer all the ML questions because they are pretty commonly asked ML questions and I have been practicing for them.
What's your favorite thing about your job/career?
  • I am learning a lot across the entire stack since the ML team is so small. I also get to work on a lot of pure software engineering work that's barely related to ML which I'm interested in.
What don't you like about your job/career?
  • This is more specific to Okta (and other similar stage companies) since it's in its early stages of expanding into ML. It can be frustrating if your team and company doesn't have the necessary ML infrastructure to allow you build the ML features (e.g. can't train models if you don't even have the infra to even fully access your data) that they want for their product. This may happen if your team doesn't have ML experts in positions of power in your org and don't realize that there's a lot of ML infra/ops you must first set up before building any ML features that impact the product.
  • Also, if the ML team is tiny, chances are there's no distinction between data engineer and data scientists, you may just do everything, so adjust your expectations and interests accordingly.

You use management features, like access control, locks, and tags, to secure and organize your resources after deployment.
  • When a user sends a request from any of the Azure tools, APIs, or SDKs, Resource Manager receives the request. It authenticates and authorizes the request. Resource Manager sends the request to the Azure service, which takes the requested action. Because all requests are handled through the same API, you see consistent results and capabilities in all the different tools.
  • Specializing in authentication/authorization, I've helped debug, refine, integrate, and implement various types of workflows to improve clients' functionality and utilization of our service.

Then, I talked about a wearable device I programmed (Using C for the wearable functions and Python for data analysis) to help people with inaccurate depth perception from tripping/getting injured. Also, I had past internship experiences but the projects were not so interesting so I talked quickly about them. The person interviewing me was very interested in my projects and had a lot of questions about them!

Software engineer
Posted on Sep 22, 2022
TLDR: What do you do at your job?
  • Create modular fullstack applications using REST APIs, Angular, and Entity Framework for other business teams at Intel. Created 1 app for a product management team at Intel from scratch by creating a schema, design patterns, and implementation.
Can you explain what you (or your team) is currently building and what your role entails as part of this team?
  • Before, my team was currently working on creating a Link Management application for another product management team, in which consisted of creating a clean UI with visualizations, sorting, filtering and other functions intertwined within it. My role consisted of actually creating the schema of the application and the system design patterns, where I formed how the layout of the website was going to be. I also worked on implementing the functionality for the website, particularly with sorting and modularization of code. I also put on demos for the product management team (worked with the product manager) and continued to reshape the website to their liking.
What's the process of getting this job?
  • The process was pretty simple. I got reached out by my manager, so for that, luck comes into play. After that, I had 2 interviews, one with my manager, and one with another intern, where I was asked questions about technical stuff, like Database, Object Oriented Programming, and communication. We also went over my resume.
What hard skills do you use for your job?
  • Angular, JS, CSS, HTML, Git, Version Control, Entity Framework, C#, Excel.js
What key things helped you the most in getting this job?
  • In order to get my Intel internship, many things come into play, but the most important is luck and persistence. I have been into coding and tech since a young age, but I picked up on the fullstack space starting in my freshman year of high school. I went out of my way to do extra projects and even asked my uncle if i could try auditing his company, even if I wasn't getting paid, so basically my resume was already padded by the time I came into college. And then luck comes in. I didn't get in by referral, just purely by the fact that my manager came across my resume and thought it was quiet interesting since I didn't have any traditional job experiences (just random internships at different places). Also, knowing database/SQL stuff is really important too, and that is for any tech job.
