A Day in the Life of an Amazon Software Engineer in Washington D.C. (in office)

Just thought I'd show you a day as a Software Engineer at Amazon, but this time in Washington DC. I live close enough to the office that I have a healthy commute.

I just imagine him placing his camera or phone on the ground doing his routine then doubling back to pick up his camera again for every non POV shot.

[@jdgaming_mdp]

I just saw another video like this from other Amazon software developer and there's no really more than 3 o 4 hours of productive coding in a regular day. I imagine is what Amazon expects otherwise everyone would be fired, but it amazes me the low pace the company has in average. Good to have a so light daily routine. Probably we are doing it wrong in other places. Some times it's much productive two hours of great coding than 6 of regular one.

[@ValentinaTheCreator]

Probably now, not what Amazon expects considering the major layoffs. lol. They probably want more productivity

[@Zanar1129]

lol ok since no one going to ask. How did you forget your car -.- lol

[@BetterLogic]

Let’s just say the night before was too much fun to drive :)

[@rahilmirza9618]

Same question hit my head

[@ntantar]

This is the life. You're a rockstar in my eyes! 🤩

[@becauseiambatman2019]

is nobody gonna mention how he forgot his car at the office

[@bilalmajeedaws]

Actually, he just went to Office just to get his car😂

[@zerokool-2058]

Wait..! How do you forget your car in the office? Lol.. wouldn’t you go to your car when leaving?

[@petkoyanakiev244]

He i like most the moment writing code.The guy did not touch the keyboard 🤣

[@candidlyvivian]

Keep up the good work!! Fellow STEM youtuber over in Sydney :)

[@ahmedzouihga9516]

thank you for sharing your amazing videos . i cannot wait to see more ^^

[@troyfitz1638]

Great video. Could you do one explaining how you landed job at Amazon?

[@BetterLogic]

Yes, working on it! Subscribe to get notified :)

[@gardelhiram147]

But how can you forget your car at the office 😩🤣🤣🤣

[@lajnof5469]

I expected more people at office, I guess they are remote. Also while taking a break I expected some hanging out with colleagues. Also, I noticed that you use phone for your daily standup?

[@emmanuelsolano7206]

You are my inspiration, greeting from Mexico!!

[@GenZ_Kid_1]

That supra at the beginning was sick!!

[@ITLIFER]

nice insight into your IT Life. :) Have you worked in any other large companies like this? if so, how does Amazon compare?

[@hamzaomari7052]

Thanks for making this video. It's a quality of 500k subs at least.

[@browntechdaddy]

The office looks beautiful, I’m sure the weather is better than Seattle lol

[@n9nedots]

Amazing video! Just that one song with the echo kind of sounds around 5:30 was killing my ears. Only negative I have for you! Was awesome filming skills!

[@bekttfuture]

@Better Logic I am not an intern yet, but are you the only one of your team at the office? If not why don't those of you at the office meet in person? Just curious. I watch a lot of these day in the life video and just realized that I have only seen one team in the office together.

[@walterhaase]

Loving the video... but you forgot your car?? lol

[@ichbinarchitt]

Ooo better logic, why you not create a more video 🙆‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️ sir,

[@xPAINKILLER]

That metro looks like it's from Max Payne

[@feathersmcgraw4650]

taking banana is 100% important...just getem all at this point

[@sooraajmisraa7791]

Awesome!

[@TenienteNegro]

Only work 7 hours. ONLY. Madness

[@ValentinaTheCreator]

Not into the music though. Like the youtuber, just the music felt like I was in Tron, but not in a good way. Like, Tron had better music. I love Marko's day in the life. check him out. I like chill vibes. But I do like the personality of Better Logic.

[@TehNorris]

Starting in Arlington end of January :)

[@chinois2100]

Hey bro good video!! But I think you should change the music it's too steady like for me I guess

[@enamahadtalash2869]

Can you make a guideline video on how to bocome a amazon level software engineer.

[@BetterLogic]

Made a video on that!

[@ruzaikrafeek3114]

Can you tell us a little bit about whether you do anything outside of your job that is related to Software Engineering (outside office hours)?

[@GoodGuy374]

even kid like this is at amazon and i am not. i wanna reset my life. find me reset button. no.. find me new game+ button. :(

[@RuffleCoptah]

WOW THIS IS VERY NICE I LIKE THIS TYPE OF VIDEOS MABYE KZbin MAKE MORE HAHA VERY NICE MANa

[@codysing8291]

bruh it's like u office alone

[@josueabarca1913]

I want to go for computer science at my college. I’m from Virginia. Any advice in how to do good? I don’t know how to code but I’m willing to learn everything.

[@lucianobruno6359]

wait, you just forgot your car in the office garage?

[@symbol767]

Did you move from Amazon's Seattle location to Washington DC via Amazon's relocation program? I'm curious how that works cause I wanna travel around and wondering if Amazon would do that and how often I could travel

[@BetterLogic]

Nope, moved on my own dime as work became remote!

[@timmyjoel5792]

Get up 07:59, half the day has gone! No software engineer gets up this late 😂

[@Worldexplorer2390]

Why do I get the feeling that he doesn’t work there anymore?

[@uuu12343]

Wait, I noticed that every "Day in the life" videos consists of people using Mac Is that a compulsory thing? Or is that just their preferences?

[@noorenabi8734]

Please made video ,how to internship in Amazon

[@salvabasketmalvin]

why 7.59am

[@ljiljankocurcic8893]

It's cool, but the office looks improvised and depressing

[@edarancibia]

you can forget your keys or glasses but how can you forget a car??

[@bhikulenka888]

Hello@better logic- one thing I am wondering that how u came back from ofc by car when u went through scotter.🤔🤨🤔🤔🤔🤔

[@Pointyhat_]

how do you "forget your car" ?

[@barcalona55]

How does one forget their car?

[@jameskulu]

Hey there, do you use any specific frameworks (Frontend or Backend) in Amazon ?

[@InvisaPotion]

Just started programming so I'm kinda stupid but isn't frontend and backend for web development?

[@pirax8787]

@@InvisaPotion Yes it's both used in web developement. The frontend developer is working on visual things (that what you as a user can see) The backend developer is working on the infrastructure for the website (functions like commenting videos here on youtube)

[@alessandrogabrieleambrose4324]

@@pirax8787 but my question is, isn't that the work that a web developer has to do?

[@vinhthekid_mt]

Technical topics

[@user-rp6bi5qj1n]

great video bro. please tell me which programming language and which technologies my need to learn from scratch in order to become an Amazon software engineer ???

[@harshitshukla4230]

Copying, pasting from stackoverflow are done sometimes?

[@gavin8535]

So you do drive but you take the scooter to work? Lol

[@serajali8904]

Super Life 😻😻

[@psychologin_sophie]

So you just put your camera on the sidewalk while filming yourself? Weren’t you scared it would get stolen in the meantime? 😨

[@hareshbsingh]

I'm confused. This is basically you working from home......but now forced to work in the office...with colleagues at home? 🤷‍♂️

[@bricolageb9398]

How i get a job in a big company as fullstuck dev web? Please

[@Jesus-pq6zr]

What programming language do you use mainly at your job?

[@BetterLogic]

Mostly python!

[@Rednunzio]

[@BetterLogic]

Weather mostly

[@iOLlVER]

Sr staff typically get that. Jr roles have often been onsite during parts of pandemic, unless there's a larger jurisdictional directive or company mgmt decision for junior staff
