What is a Senior Software Engineer?

Thursday, December 17, 2020 ยท 0 min read

  • 3 criteria for a software engineer
    • Results
    • Behavior (it's not about not being a jerk)
    • Sphere of impact
  • Senior engineer
    • Impacts the team, starts reaching outside
    • Behavior: corrective reviews, informal teaching, mentorship
    • Results: quick results, big results, correct results
      • Figures out the correct abstractions faster
      • Debugs faster
