I really wanted this article to be a strong counter argument (because there is one) but alas. Kudos for supporting open discussion and it sounds like you’ll be a great engineer given your genetic inheritance. The fired Googler did not say no women can be great engineers. You are a sample size of one. The half of your article describing this sample size of one is not a valid counter argument. However, please continue writing and inspiring other female engineers. Silicon Valley and the world needs more of you.
