robopet3At Google, what's better: SRE or SWE?
SRE is like the Marines. They deal with the real life, real time issues of running a super-high-reliability system. SWE are the people designing new things. There are plenty of coding positions in SRE. You should talk to your recruiter about what those positions actually are and what they involve.
If you want the best of both worlds, you can come work for Technical Infrastructure. Those are the SWEs and also the real (EE/ME) engineers who build the datacenters and the systems that run everything else.
