✨How to build a career as a Senior developer: Staff+ ✨

During this week, we've explored the role of Staff+ engineer from different angles. I hope I was able to convince you that this role should not be perceived as a simple title, but might be an entity that brings benefits to you and people around you.

We can definitely say that Staff+ role is:
1. Impactful. Staff+ people have more impact on technology, people, and business success, than other people around.
2. Fun. Being Staff+ you have access to the questions and decisions at their early stages. You are one of the stakeholders, you are one of the people who can make decisions.
3. Rewarding. According to the last salary report we can clearly see that Staff+ roles earn more than Senior roles.

And it still allows you to stay on the technical track and not be a people manager.

Do you want to follow this path? We can do it together!

⚠️ Today I want to announce a workshop, which I'm going to hold on the 21st of April. The workshop is dedicated to the role of Staff+, how to get there, and the skills that each good Staff+ engineer is expected to have. The one which allow them to do their work efficiently.

We are going to talk about:
1. Who are Staff+ engineers, which traits do they possess, and how do you prepare for your promotion.
2. Hard skills. Architecture for developers and modern software architecture. You will learn the baseline that would allow you to design and implement effective architectures — the ones that help businesses and are maintainable.
3. Soft skills. We are going to learn how to explain anything to stakeholders or people who are less involved in the topic. How to design and facilitate effective meetings — the ones where everyone feels heard and participants are committed to the decision.

Each block has 💪exercises, which allow you to practice learned skills right away.

This workshop is a great opportunity to learn the skills and tools that will strengthen your SE expertise and make you a desirable hire.

Important. The language of the workshop is 🇺🇦Ukrainian.

For the participants of this channel, there is a special 20% discount. Just visit this link. The number of places is limited to 25 and some of the places have already been taken. I'm looking forward to see some of you on the workshop. Let's level up our engineering culture and build better solutions 📈
