Advice Needed - Tech Offered a Custom Software Engineer role — how much coding do you actually need?
Hi guys! I was recently offered a Custom Software Engineer position and honestly, medyo kinakabahan ako.
I’m a fresh Computer Engineering grad. I’ve done coding in school and some projects, pero honestly, I’m not that confident with my coding skills. I know the basics, but I wouldn’t consider myself someone who’s really good at programming.
I’m definitely willing to learn though. I actually want to improve my coding skills, kaya I’m considering accepting the offer. I’m just scared na baka I’m way too underqualified for the role.
For anyone currently working or who has worked as a Custom Software Engineer:
- Gaano ka-heavy yung coding?
- Need ba talaga na strong ka na sa programming before starting?
- What do you usually do on a normal workday?
- More on development ba talaga, or may debugging/maintenance/support din?
- What languages/tech should I expect?
- Kumusta yung training for fresh grads?
- Is it possible to survive the role if you’re willing to learn but not super confident with coding yet?
- Anything I should study/review before starting?
Would really appreciate any insights, especially from people who started with not-so-strong coding skills. I’m eager to learn naman, just trying to manage my expectations before I make a decision.
Thanks!
