A day in the life of a software engineer. I worked really hard on this video and I hope y’all enjoy it! This is a fairly typical day in my life as a software engineer. I understand I may have glossed over a few things, so please, leave your questions below!
This video is sponsored by Skillshare.
----------------------------------------------------------
I document and share my experiences on topics including computer science & software engineering. I'm a full-time Software Engineer and a part-time UA-camr. My less nerdy activities include fishing, hunting, surfing, and snowboarding. I'm just here to have some fun.

Totally unrealistic....he plugged in the USB cable on the first try!
Lol, you've got a sharp eye
Lol, what's unrealistic in that
Wow you've got sherlock holmes level of observing people!
@@Adarsh-mn7pl r/woooosh
@@Luka-sf3vu ja ja ja ja ja
Wow, the first video where they talk about their actual job. Not just eating and staring at the screen. The best one I’ve seen! Love your content!
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
So True
This video ended alot of softdevs youtube careers. lol
Maybe i am watching day in the life videos just because of the food?
I just scrolled down to the comments to say this! The rest of these videos are so pointless I almost didnt even click on this one. What a pleasant surprise.
Finally a Software Dev/Engineer that actually showers. I thought I was alone in this world...
Every Engineer/Developer showers it's just a stereotype that they don't shower
Matt Fenlon you shower once a week...thats gross
@Danxry How about you?
Arwah Sapi everyday.

1:30PM - Wake Up
1:31PM - Go onto stack overflow
2:30AM - git push
3:00AM - sleep
😂👌

You gotta git sleep.
@@TheNeonMind No.
Pornhub should be there.
He wakes up and gets off the bed immediatey. When I wake up I need to roll on bed for 10min and then complain about getting out off the bed and then I can get off the bed.
He did all that why setting up the camera lol, nobody escapes the early morning
@@J90JAM I literally run out of bed the moment I hear the alarm go off
@@insitakaya1672 I power jump of the bed.
At least he gets to wake up an hour before I have to. I set my alarm as the one that pisses me off the most.
I have watched a ton of "day in the life of software engineer" videos that other UA-camrs have created and not to talk bad about other ones, but this one is the first one that I have encountered that has been realistic and informative. I really enjoyed this video, keep up the great work and videos Forrest!
no like for real he literally talks about his job and not just a dry overview of like them at a keyboard fast fowarded really cool!
Have you seen a day in the life of a Japanese video game developer?
Fake! This isnt a day in the life of a software engineer. Where is the multiple coffee breaks? No fake-ass-typing-keyboard pretending to code? Why is there so much work? Wait, a breakdown into the process of ur work? This is unreal
Finally a real A Day In A Life Of A Software Engineer. Thumbs Up!
it's because everyone else copying mayuko
as a person working software, it is true I do sometimes pretend to code and then browse on my phone when no one is around
It's true, when I've got no idea what to do I pretend to type
John Wig ok
This made me feel better because I do some of that fake ass typing when I'm frustrated with a piece of code and have to take a break.
Open the video.
See *Wake Up: **6:50*
Close the video.
@Mr. Spaghetti this is too much
Yeah, imagine sleeping in past 5
@IIyass on my momma!!! 😂😂😭
Too earlyyy
Too earlyyy
I'm gonna do this but it's gonna be "A day in the life of a Mcdanolds employee"
I would watch it
Impossible to film yourself if you aren't a drive thru worker. I work at McDonald's and you can't use your phone during the shift. Only during break times. :P
McDan
Is it better than this lol
The horror
It's pretty much to what I'm doing at my company during my internship. I'm really glad that we have a pretty similar day 😍! Good job!
Thanks love your vidoes always great !! You’re a main reason why I changed my major to computer science and been loving it since I found your videos last year keep it man much love from Cal Poly Pomona !!👍🏾👍🏾
I'm happy to help. I appreciate the support and good luck with CS!
Thanks for actually showing what you do unlike other software engineers! This is much more informative and gives me great insight. Definitely earned a subscriber.
Thank you for making this video. I plan on becoming a software engineer when I grow up(I have a lot to learn though). Discovering this channel and video has inspired me even more.
I liked the editing and realistic perspective 👏👏
I like how you have done it properly, wished I could have seen your video before making one. great job!
#1 - Wake up with GoPro fixated on head
Cool Vid!!
Awesome video! Best video of “a day as a software developer” I have found. Thanks for actually sharing the details of what you actually do at work.
As a 20 year old in his first year as a CS student, you are my hero. These videos are amazing
Finally, a vlog where you actually show what you're working on. You have a new subscriber, cheers buddy!
My exact Panda E order every time I go. Subbed.
This vid showed up in my recommenced and I liked it so much I went back and watched like 50 of his other vids. Extremely useful if you’re interested in computer science
Awesome video! Beautiful sights on your way to work!
It has arrived 👏👏😅
Love the fast paced editing style.
Much appreciated!
Awesome video, great editing! Keep up the good work pal.
Great video! I liked how you played with the camera in a CaseyNeistat-like way! Keep it up dude
Love your videos dude!
Just loving it. Realistic! Great music. Learn a lot. Studying software engineering. Thanks for the headsup
This is great. Finally an explanation of what really happens in this line of work! Thanks man👍👍
Thanks for making this video man! By the way, the style of your house looks really cool!
Best "day in the life of software engineer" video I've seen. Good work!
pretty balanced life I would say which is not easy, good job dude!
I remember a couple of years ago when I was choosing my major, I searched for day in the life videos of software engineers and they all sucked. This one is actually realistic and good! Glad you made this!
Thanks Forrest for this great vid!
Signed up for skill share! Thank you for the info and you have a new sub.
Indian River Road! This is by far the best DITLO video I’ve seen yet. Realistic. Appreciate your content Forrest!
Wow ! Great insight! Thanks , this is so much better than 99% of the day in the life software engineer video!
This was awesome! Thanks for uploading
Yes, Panda! Sold. Good video dude, great editing, keep it up!
I like vids of this kind.I like your editing too.Good job sir
I use to watch your videos when I was working a regular job and going to college. Now I work the 9 to 5 as a IT. Thank you for your videos
Thank you for actually showing your screen
Sure thing! I did as much as possible but of curse had to blur/cover at moments.
great content i really liked it , keep going bro !!!
I think software engineers are amazing! I can’t even begin to think about all the skills you would need to acquire to do that work!
It's really cool how similar our day-to-days are. I'm working on Integration testing for PLM and just had a meeting about our GIT flow workflow.
I was losing motivation on my job as a software engineer but your video somehow made me realize I like my job and what I do, so thanks a lot for this! (I am definitely going to share this video to whoever asks me what my work is like.)
New to your channel it's just awesome
That was the best way I’ve ever heard anyone on UA-cam ask you to subscribe. Didn’t sound pushy, lame, or annoying. 👍🏼
Thanks Forrest for making some of the best software development content on UA-cam.
I have never seen a drive-thru Panda Express before. Neat.
You're like the Keanu Reeves of comp sci
neo is the one
Wow this is the most sincerely video of a software engineer it's not only eat and go to walk like the others videos on UA-cam, greetings from Dominican Republic
It's finally here!!
Hey Forrest, love the content! just a quick question, what platform do you host your VM on? Thanks!
About to be going into college for computer science/programming. This was a great video man, thank you!
I’m sorry be strong
Thx my dude this is the career I wanna follow but I was nervous to be stuck u seem good tho I'm going for it jow
noticed the ODU tumbler, glad to see another monarch doing great :D
Wow. We have the same Panda order. I felt that
Hey I learned from this video one way to arrange git branches for a project. Subscribed!
Joe Hsiao lol, nice
Good Job Forrest!! Love your videos! Keep up the good work!!! Btw, a question, do you prefer what operating system? Windows, Linux or MacOS? Do you use MacOS for programming or for terminal stuff?
Good quality video man👍
Thank you for this amazing content . Really appreciate it. Could you please reply how you manage your time in self learning like understanding a new technologies or programming languages etc etc ..
Please reply
thank you so much for the skillshare link! I have finals coming up and I want to get an internship at Google and I know this will help!
Thank you for the support! Good luck with getting the internship!
Edit: Oh, and finals of course.
ForrestKnight thank you😂 I’m gonna need it
Quality stuff keep it up, and i'm studying software engineering and i want to know what kind of software process does your company work on and what kind of software testing you do? I'm very bored with the theories of the subject "Software Engineering" 😐
Nice! I've heard that exact JRE podcast
THE GREATEST VIDEO AND CHANNEL ON UA-cam !
Sweet video man! I landed a dev job for after graduation in a few weeks, and am excited to get started! What type of dev are you currently working as?
Thanks for reminding me why I chose my major. Only a few semesters left.
I've also been working as a software engineer for a year, sitting at a desk inside all day is also getting to me! It's something you know but you don't actually realize until you get there.
Lmao you didn’t stand up during the stand up boi you wild
You ordered my signature plate at Panda Express! You have now inspired me to become a Software Engineer.
A day in the life of an software engineer: stackoverflow.
I always see these comments is it for real though?
@@JoshT4life this guy prolly hit his head on a dry wall or something cuz he dumb for saying dat
Problem is you don't always get everything there...you have to think a lot more than that ...
@@luicisidafaxo6330 Looks like I offended Jesus! I'm sorry my lord! 🙏
@@niveyoga3242 its jared leto, how hard did u hit your head?
"I love you!"
"Bye."
Nice Video! I've only just recently found your channel and it's awesome! Keep it up :)
Thank you!
Literally the first day in the life video in which I actually learned something (while also enjoying the content) Keep it up man!
After seeing the video ....forgot my breakfast!
GREAT VID.😋
Your panda express order is exactly what I get every.single.time. That's wild hahah
this beat is fiiiiire!
Thought i wasnt gona like it since i didnt like most other videos. But this is real and genuine. ♡
9:27 i know this has nothing to do with the purpose of the video but for some reason i clicked like once i saw that lol
Love your videos
Keep up the good work!
Can't wait to see the new setup
And i have a ques. about the Open source CS degree... Can you divide the courses into 4 sections, and tell what should we study with what... like semesters ... i'd appreciate that a lot
I like ur vedio. And so subscribed it. Me too an IT engineer and I loved that u shared us that is the day of software engineers. I always love the technology, and I love what I did and choice the right path. Do your great job I luck best for u. Lots of lov
Subscribed! ✌🏻
Nice video. Good that you talked about what you actually do as a sde
Finally a day in the life video with actual work!
This is so interesting to me. I'm a blue collar worker and I work 12 hour shifts in my feet and I'm just getting into programming and I think about how hard it will be sitting all day I'd have to start running. Thank you for sharing your story.
Good luck 👍👍
how is it going ?
Same i’m a very outdoorsey person and was considering being a cs major but idk if i can sit all day
That puppy is the cutest! 🙌🏽✨Hanging out with her would definitely be a highlight of my day
Your life is boring
At last, a 'day in the life of SE' video where one is actually showing what they do in the office and not how they live, travel, eat and hangout all day...😍😍😍
This is my day EXACTLY. I'm also a software engineer. Except I get interrupted by like 3 meetings a day minimum. Can't get shit done in the office so I end up working late at night to do any actual work. Blows.
Good video! Greetings from Chile!
Smooth transitioning into the ad bro bet you were great in marketing
I learned about software engineering and that Panda Express has drive-thrus. I see this as win
00:00 You were trying to cross the border, right? Walked right into that Imperial ambush, same as us, and that thief over there.
Awesome video!
Most realistic one I’ve seen so far
Oh mein Gott! It's an engineer/dev with a UA-cam channel instead of a UA-camr with an engineering/cs degree! Subbed and recommended to my friends.
Hi, thank you for sharing. May I ask what camera you use?
Really helpful video!
It seems really stressful sometimes.
Yea, it can be.
Simply subscribed 👍
Forest is that cool guy you can hang with and drink a beer with.
Great vid 👍
I'm sure agile is an amazing way of working when used correctly...
But on my work I'm getting tired of constant and multiple daily meetings that got way off topic. Sorry for the rant. Amazing video. Subscribed.
j m same, shit makes me want to nut in my own eye socket
