From what I hear from my friends that got into FAANG, at least none of them seem to do.

My best friend's FAANG job sounds incredible mundane to be honest. An entire team seems to be dedicated towards working on the backend piece of what seems like a very small feature, plus another entire sister team is working on the frontend piece of same feature. Granted there is probably a level of scale involved that adds complexity, but just hearing him talk about what he and his team does makes my unsexy non-tech company work more interesting.
