| Hi, my name is Sarah and welcome to a day in the life of a software engineer. Come on in! | Oi, meu nome é Sarah e bem-vindos a um dia na vida de uma engenheira de software. Entrem! |
| So I woke up at 5:00 today. I already got my workout in, I took care of my fur kids and gave them a little love. But I officially can't start my workday without a cup of coffee. So I make a cup of coffee. | Eu acordei às 5h hoje. Já fiz meu treino, cuidei dos meus "filhos de quatro patas" e dei um pouco de carinho a eles. Mas oficialmente não consigo começar meu dia de trabalho sem uma xícara de café. Então, preparo meu café. |
| A software engineer develops software for multiple companies. I have been working at my company for about five years, but I've been coding for a little over a decade. My usual schedule is 8:00 to 4:00, and it's kind of nice to be able to take a break here and there to do anything that I need to around the house or go to a store if I need to. | Um engenheiro de software desenvolve software para várias empresas. Trabalho na minha empresa há cerca de cinco anos, mas programo há pouco mais de uma década. Meu horário habitual é das 8h às 16h, e é bem legal poder fazer uma pausa aqui e ali para resolver qualquer coisa em casa ou ir a uma loja, se eu precisar. |
| So the tasks that I perform on a daily basis include updating my code if somebody requested a change that I make. Sometimes I spend a lot of time replying to emails if that's necessary. I check in on my interns to see if they need any help with anything. | As tarefas que realizo diariamente incluem atualizar meu código se alguém solicitou uma mudança. Às vezes, passo muito tempo respondendo e-mails, se for necessário. Verifico meus estagiários para ver se precisam de ajuda com algo. |
| My desk setup consists of two external monitors — one's for code, one is for seeing my changes — and then my computer for emails and different terminal things. I also just have a little fun space where my birthday cards sit and then a whole slew of different mice and keyboards. | Minha configuração de mesa consiste em dois monitores externos — um para o código e outro para ver minhas alterações — e o meu computador para e-mails e terminais. Também tenho um cantinho divertido onde ficam meus cartões de aniversário e um monte de mouses e teclados diferentes. |
