  • I'm Anthony, I'm a full stack software engineer working remotely in London. Welcome in this day in a life video.
    Working remotely as a software engineer can be a bit scary for some, but in this day in a life video you will see that I'm not actually isolated in my home in front of my screen all day long and that you can actually life quite an healthy lifestyle -- actually it's quite easier this way!
    Let me know what are you thought and if becoming a remote software engineer is something you'd like to do!

    🤝 About me:
    I'm Anthony, I started to code when I was around 12 years old and completely fell in love with the freedom and creativity that it gaves me. Since then I went from side projects to side projects and eventually made a living out it. Today I want to share my experience with everyone and talk about what it means to be to be a developer and also stories around my projects and learnings.
    I'm always up for chalenges and super curious with every new technologies. I'm working at the moment for a crypto company on a new DEFI protocol, which I find really challenging and cool.

    Hope you like this day in life video, it's a hint of what working remotely means! I personally won't work in person again, this lifestyle helps me to live my life the way I want, where I want and this is priceless!
    And you, are you already or are you thinking of becoming a remote worker? Let me know 😁

    I enjoyed this video, I think it is the best one of this kind 🤣
    I am a little bit jealous about your routine, I lack discipline so much that outside of work my life is a mess. Software Development drains the hell out of my brain's energy so I can appreciate how difficult it is to keep your routine running day by day, it inspired me to do better.
    Good job! 🎉

      But please, don’t think I’ve got a perfect routine! I’ve been doing really badly lately and that’s like everything in life, sometimes you slip and you get to fix yourself up and get back to where you should be!
      Thanks again!

    • @anthony_riera
      @anthony_riera  Před rokem +2

      Hey Lewis thanks for your comment 🙏
      Well, my advice would be to try to have a competitive edge compared to the others developers, having your diploma is really nice and kudos for that, but I think that having some sort of personal project to show off during interviews is really key!
      You need to show that you know how to code a product and you already went hands down on a project 😊
      Good luck with that, my next video will actually talk about that 👀

    Fantastic angles, whose holding the camera? Cinematic like Coppola movies, you have a natural thoughtful eye sight gift, editing is different from that of an “Asian “ software engineer the difference is you treated this video as if I was watching a movie.
