Jorge Robles

My name is Jorge Robles and I am a Software Engineer at Google. I'm also a professionally licensed K-12 Music Teacher in NYS, specializing in instrumental music.

This blog documents the journey from music teacher to software engineer, from writing my first line of HTML in February 2022 to shipping AI agents at Google. It covers every chapter: leaving the classroom, conquering math, building real projects, winning a hackathon, landing the internship, surviving the Google interview gauntlet, and finding my footing as a professional engineer.

If you're reading this and considering a career change, I hope this blog gives you the confidence to take the leap.
