Chat About Growing Your Tech Career

Navigating a software engineer’s career path can be complex and ambiguous. It can be hard to perform well in in a tech company because performance review can be so subjective. It’s not just about having the technical skills, but many engineers don’t realize this unless they’ve talked to someone who’s more experienced than them. A mentor can be a sacred resource for a lot of software engineers. But, not everyone can find a mentor that is experienced and willing to share their knowledge. Even if they are willing to share their knowledge, they might not be communicating how they got to where they are with clarity.
As a software engineer progresses in the industry, it’s essential for them to have a platform where they can seek advice from experts. This is more than an exchange of knowledge, it’s about mentorship and understanding the intricate nuances of leveling up as a software engineer. You also need insights that are tailored to your specific questions. You may not be able to get these insights from books or other online courses.
