About This Podcast
The Pybites Podcast - Insights to become a world-class developer.
Coding is only half the battle. To truly succeed in the tech industry, you need more than just syntax, you need strategy.
The Pybites Podcast is your weekly mentorship session on the soft skills and career skills that senior developers use to get ahead.
Join Pybites co-founders Bob Belderbos (ex-Oracle) and Julian Sequeira (ex-AWS) as they share real-world insights on mastering the developer mindset, crushing imposter syndrome, and navigating your career with confidence.
Whether you are a self-taught beginner stuck in tutorial hell or a senior dev looking for that extra edge, we cut through the fluff to help you build a career you love.
