In this episode, I sit down with engineer Malachi Tesarik, who took the FE in March, graduated in May, and passed the PE by September — all while settling into his first full-time engineering job. Malachi shares how he balanced on-the-job learning with 17-hour study weeks, the mindset that kept him motivated, and what it’s like preparing for the PE so early in his career. Tune in for practical study tactics, lessons from the trenches, and inspiration for anyone considering an accelerated path to the PE.
