Bruno Yoshioka, Principal Software Engineering Manager at Microsoft, didn’t plan to become an engineer. For most of his life, he dreamed of becoming a music professor until a summer internship changed his path. Born in Brazil to Japanese parents and raised in the U.S., Bruno grew up navigating multiple cultures and expectations.
Bruno shares how he accidentally found his way into tech, how mentorship played a pivotal role in his growth, and why he now pours that same energy into supporting early-career engineers and professionals on their own journeys.
