A day in the life of a female developer

InMobi data architect Amareshwari Sriramadasu shares her experiences

I love coding and debugging. There’s a sentence I never thought I’d say.

When I was a kid, I never sought out to become a developer, but with my Bachelor’s degree in computer science and engineering, and a Masters in engineering, specialising in Internet sciences, I guess I chose my own career path without knowing.

I grew up in India and my father was a postman in our village, while my mother was a stay-at-home-mum. I’m the eldest of all my siblings, with a younger brother and two younger sisters, so of course I had to set a precedent for landing a successful career.

From a young age I took an interest in maths and science, and excelled in all my classes at school. The moment I started my degree in computer science, I knew it was something that I was passionate about, and it lit a spark in me to become a developer. Now, 12 years on, I’m still here and still enjoying it.
