Description

Everything out there feels AI-generated — the advice, the posts, the career tips, half the internet. This show is the opposite.

The Unfiltered Engineer is honest conversations with experienced software engineers, for engineers trying to navigate this industry right now. Real people with real mileage — decades at big companies, leaps into startups, pivots into AI, climbs into leadership — talking about how this career actually works.

Every episode asks what engineers are actually wondering: How did you get there? What did it cost? What's changed? What would you tell someone in the middle of it right now?

No scripts. No rehearsed answers. No LinkedIn polish.

Hosted by Vishakha — a frontend engineer with 10+ years in the industry, currently navigating it herself. She started this show because the conversations she needed weren't happening anywhere public. So she's having them here.
