Day in the Life of a Software Engineer Co-op at Faire

- Just finished my 16-week internship as a Frontend Engineer at Faire, an online wholesale marketplace empowering small business owners and independent brands to buy and sell wholesale online.
It was an amazing experience where I learned a lot and worked with fantastic people! My favourite part of the internship was getting to take ownership over several customer-facing features. It was extremely rewarding to see the impact of the features on key business metrics!
Most of my time was spent building new features with React + TypeScript + MobX, but sometimes I was fixing bugs, refactoring code, or investigating abnormal user trends.
I was on the Retailer Growth team which aims to acquire new retailers and encourage them to place their first order.

This was definitely the video I spent the most time and effort on, so I really hope you enjoy :)

This is an exact "Day in the life of a software engineer" video. It's factual and covers entirely everything that goes throughout an actual working day. You should do a follow-up video for Mbrilla (Uber for Umbrellas). I always watch this video whenever I feel I need a good laugh
Aww appreciate it :)
He nailed the coding interview! Go Nick!
The transitions, sounds, quality are soooo clean oh my goodness! Can’t wait to see more in the future!!
Thanks Natasha :)
“Unlike most people during stand up. I actually standup”
Real engineers stand during standup 😤
@@nicholast For sure. Even during half of the day after developing a herniated disc and not being able to sit much 😥 Moving regularly and sitting with not terrible posture is important
@@nicholast That's the law!!
@@nicholast gg
@@nicholast This is the way.
I am glad that you are enjoying it!
I finished a one year long internship back in September as an app developer but it was too stressful for me as my personal life also suffered due to a high workload.
I found that teaching could offer me a perfect compromise... Can't wait to start teaching Computing at a local school :)
Yoo it's so cool that your company was super cool with it and even pitched in!! Definitely need more content like this to show what being an intern is like
I really love how everyone is there waving, such a wholesome environment
👋
This some of the few a day in life videos which actually talks about what they are working on and what they did on that day rather than say I did some coding, really good video, keep it coming
Yeah I’ve noticed a lot of people don’t really talk about what they’re actually working on but that might be because their company doesn’t let them 🤔
@@nicholast Yeh maybe you are right, but atleast your company allows it
Barely halfway through second year and this guy already covered 90% of what my 3 year degree offered (actually 3.5). You got this, son. 🔥
Since you are already reading atomic habits you may like to read:
1. Thinking fast and slow - Daniel Kahnemann and co.
2. Nudge - Richard Thaler and co.
3. Noise - Daniel Kahnemann and co.
They're all great behavioural books
And great job on your first co-op!
Thanks for the recommendations!
Thinking fast and slow is a great recommendation. Having read not completely but almost 50-60% of that book, it helps you understand a lot about your thought processes.
It feels as if the Nat Geo Show Brain Games was based on this book as a lot of experiments corelated with the experiments in the book as well
Wait, I just realized you got your internship as a first year student. That's insane!. Kudos to you
Haha thanks :)
Because of you only I am motivated everyday and learn something new, even though I will be joining SFU in the summer 2022 but still I have started going through the syllabus since I think so it will give me better grades and I don't have to put much effort in the end
Keep up the great content. You are definitely my favorite software engineering content creator!
Appreciate it :)
i always wished to see one of the "Day in the life of a software engineer" videos from you. And also we are almost at 50k
Your wish has been granted
Hey Nicholas I found you last year and damn you’ve gained hella progress, just wanted to congratulate you and keep up the good work!
Ah you’re an og, appreciate it :)
Thanks for the video, I am an App Developer student and this actually inspired me a lot. Looking forward to more of your videos and I hope become like you one day.
Saludos desde Madrid, España.
I loved the part where you were working out and playing basketball, great job Nicholas! Fairely sure it's not entirely accurate but nice gains.
The dumbbells and basketball were paid actors
*Fairly
@@nushamusa550 his company is Faire omg nusha be better
@@siddharthparatkar8816 you are being so rude. What why?
@@klookooma5948 they're my friends lol I'm a mod on the discord
Waited for this video and finally, it has been released, waiting for part 4 of the interviews be like. And your cool 😎 👌.
It’s coming 👀
@@nicholast cool waiting......
That was a nice vid!
Just finished Atomic Habits, took a lot of notes. Great Book!
I think this content is amazing please keep it up , it keeps us beginner coders motivated
Omggg I was waiting for a new upload from a longgg time 🙌🤧💞
You should do "Day in the life of a software engineer but no bs"
1. Wake up half ass at 9am still in PJ
2. make breakfast at 10am (legit just a sandwhich and tea)
3. prepare for the stand up meeting (actually stand up so it doesn't look like im half dead)
etc...
X. Since I coded all day I am not going to touch code.
X. Go to sleep at 4am cause the boys are online playing League.
This sounds terrible, get better fam
You don’t have to hate your job. You can still workout and hang out with friends. A se or Cs student doesn’t just code all day 24/7 till they fall asleep on their computer
I'm so used to the sketches that i was taken back by this one LOL. Awesome video regardless!
haha more skits coming soon
Good to learn about Faire, hope they will expand to retail consumer market one day and become another Amazon.
They are definitely growing 📈
Or grow large enough to end up being bought by amazon
Intro song is “17” by Cyrus feat. Packy
That was fairely specific.
Bro these videos are so well edited! You front end devs are so creative 👍👍
That Hash Map while doing dumble was dope
POG
This is the best WFH day in the life I've seen. Earned a sub!
Appreciate it :)
Great video, Nicholas! Continue with this kind of content
thanks, glad you enjoyed :)
Good Luck Nicholas; Looking forward for more such contents.
also this new vlog style vid is awesome :D pls make more so I can live out my swe dreams through u
Thanks flora! Please make a day in the life as a product designer 👀
hey man really like this video! keep the good work and stay safe!
Thanks :)
Man that looking down at the desk face palming questioning your intelligence Is so relatable lol.
Hope to see more VLOG from you.
Keep up the good work.
Thanks :)
i like these small vids! keep up the good work ma dude!
Thanks :)
Hi Nick! Fellow small STEM TH-camr here, just wanted to pop by and say I loved this video! Can’t wait to see more and would love to connect 😊
I died when you were curling hash maps🤣
Really great video. Perfectly captures all the aspects of WFH in software engineering
awesome! glad you're enjoying what you're doing)
This is pretty cool, I like the way you guys stand up lol
Let's gooooo
Nick you havent uploaded in a while, we miss you
i love these videos! keep them up!
I swear you were at 1K subs just a month ago. Nice to see you blowing up!
I always yell hashmap when training,100% accurate. Some people yell `linked list` but they dont stimulate the muscles as much
Motivated himself to do finish his curls with “hash… maps!!”🤣🤣🤣
Why every 'Day in the life of Software Engineers' starts with Alarm clock...
Idk a lot of ppl start their days with their alarm going off
Wow, your internship is really helpful! My workplace was great as well, only that my mentor was not as patient as yours with questions and at some point started ignoring my calls. 😢
"i just watch youtube and eat food"
*relatable*
This was an inspiration as a CS student overseas
This was actually a very good video, keep it up bro
Great vid man!
Great musical taste listening to NF.
good job man! amazing video!
Software Engineering channel with montage at the beginning? You're official now.
Keep it up mate, you inspire us 😁
This was good bruh ! 🙏
I love to watch what do you do during your free time in order improve your coding ability
What!! You work at Faire! You're awsome!!
I know your channel is tech oriented but I feel like vlogs would be so cool considering ur amazing editing
Haha thanks :) vlogs are def fun to make
Great content!
P.S. I was here before u got 1 mln subs:)
yoo i love this!! very clean
Thanks :)
Hi nick! great video and glad to hear you just finished your internship. I was wondering what keyboard that was in your video?
Amazing video, subbed!
Started applying for summer 2022 today im hyped
Really enjoyed the whole video :D
I like the Hack Western shirt 😛 - beauty of a vid!
Thanks Justin :) the Hack western shirt is soo nice
Bruh your still in 2nd year? Dayum Im getting fired up. And thats probably the brightest 8pm Ive ever seen. 😂
This was a fairely cool video!
waking up at 8.15 sounds fantastic. my school starts at 8.05
cool video, it is very lucky to have a team like yours, keep on with the good work :D, i actually started a new job recently, not as an intetern but i feel likle it, to much to learn atm, im workings as a Plataform Support Engineer, so i have to know a little about all projects in the company, im lucky too to have a team that can explain you where to find what to fix and stuff like that. again keep up the good work, i enjoy your videos, and is kind of ironic to read that book to fix your sleeping late issue at 3 am xd
great video nicholas
I’ve always felt that you would be big one day. So far no doubt
Appreciate it :)
an inspiration
great video!
'I'm actually standup during standup' 😄
"sleeping super late and also procrastinate a lot..." like me that should be making a college's test right now but I'm watching your video and here is almost 00:00.
PS.: I'm a software engineer intern too.
congrats for the content.
Great vid!
A video about your learnings from the book would be very nice to see
Fairely cool
waking up at 8...what a life, lucky you
The stack overflow.
at least you guys have time to code, i am mostly in goddamn meetings
I enjoyed this one
very cool videos nick 👍👍
Lool thanks Ashley
Do you use notion for to do list and note taking? Also you should get a extra tall vesa mount so the center of your monitor is at eye level.
I use notion for todo lists and managing my channel! I really should buy a monitor mount tbh
He can u make a proper guide how u applied and prepped for internship like ur just in second year plz
These guys should thank you for the free marketing.
that was fairly specific..
awesome vid :D
i also standup at standup meetings at 11:15 am lol
yeah that's not in the video.. wrong timestamp lol
@@LinesAreVeryCool probably meant at 11.15am
Only real engineers stand during standup 😤
My day in the life of a full time software engineer at my company. Wake up 8:30am, Standup at 8:45am, Work from 9am-5pm (maybe ill eat something somewhere in there), get off at 5pm, play final fantasy 14 until I go to sleep...
Dude, this is non conventional and great!
I recognize that hack western shirt
its a nice shirt
6:17 I fell when he said "Hash....Map" while exercising😭😭
Where exactly is the part where you cry uncontrollably while you stare at stack overflow?
eyo, nemo here,
rlly cool vid lmaoo. hope to see more
Haha thanks nemo
